Note:  
The Web browser that you use to upload new firmware into the 
wireless access point needs to support HTTP uploads. Use a 
browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later or Mozilla 
1.5 or later.
Note:  
You cannot perform the software upgrade from a computer that is 
connected to the wireless access point over a wireless link. You 
need to use a computer that is connected to the wireless access 
point over an Ethernet cable.
WARNING!
When uploading software to the wireless access point, do not 
interrupt the Web browser by closing the window, clicking a link,

might fail, corrupt the software, and render the wireless access 
point completely inoperable.
IMPORTANT:
In some cases, such as a major upgrade, you might need to erase 
the configuration and manually reconfigure your wireless access 
point after upgrading it. See the release notes included with the 
software to find out if you need to reconfigure the wireless access 
point.
