Click ADVANCED > System Configuration > Firmware to upload new 
firmware to the WiMAX Modem. Firmware files usually use the system model 
name with a "*.bin" extension, such as "WiMAX Modem.bin". The upload process 
uses HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) and may take up to two minutes. After a 
successful upload, the system will reboot. 

Contact your service provider for information on available firmware upgrades.

Note: Only use firmware for your WiMAX Modem’s specific model.
