III. UPDATE INFORMATION FOR THIS RELEASE::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

   1) Before updating any firmware it is important to verify that you are 
      not using special code on your device. SPR (Special Product Request)
      firmware changes are often not included in official releases and 
      updating may cause the device to lose this type of special 
      functionality.  

      Also, note that the flash file extension should not be changed.


   2) One of the following methods is required to update the device with
      this release of flash firmware:
   
      A) The embedded web server can be used to update the firmware:
         1. Enter the IP address of the adapter into the address field in
            your web browser.
         2. Click the 'Settings' tab on the left-hand side of the page.
         3. Select the 'Update Firmware' link.
         4. Enter the filename or use the 'Browse' button to locate the
            updated flash file.
         5. Click the 'Flash' button to begin the flashing process.


      B) The flash file can also be sent down to the adapter via FTP with 
         a binary transfer.  In the following examples the flash file is
         located in the C:\flash\ directory.

   	 Windows XP example:

   	 C:\flash>ftp 157.184.195.162
       	 Connected to 157.184.195.162.
   	 220 ET000400EE9E37 FTP Server ready.
   	 User (157.184.195.162:(none)):
   	 230 User default logged in.
   	 ftp> bin
   	 200 TYPE command successful.
   	 ftp> put firmware.fls
   	 200 PORT command successful.
   	 150 Opening BINARY data connection (157.184.195.124,5001).
   	 226 Transfer complete.
   	 ftp: 64388815 bytes sent in 64.94Seconds 991.54Kbytes/sec.
   	 ftp> bye

     
   3) If the device does not appear to be updated correctly please try the 
      following before contacting Dell Technical Support for 
      assistance:

      1. Verify that the firmware revisions are not updated by printing out
         the menu settings pages and comparing them to the revisions in this
         document.
 
      2. Verify that the firmware package you are trying to use is correct 
         for the device you are trying to update.  

      3. Power off the device and back on and then try to update the device 
         again.
