Upgrade using TFTP

1. Configure the IP address of your PC to 192.168.0.36
2. If you do not have a TFTP server on your PC, install one now. (These are available, free, from such places as Solarwinds. You may download the software from http://support.solarwinds.net/updates/New-customerFree.)
3. Copy the WAG302 firmware image into the TFTP Root directory, such as c:\TFTP-Root.
4. Rename the image to wag302.rmt
5. Connect your PC and the WAG302 access point directly with a CAT5 Ethernet cable.
6. Start the TFTP server. (An example, showing Solarwinds start-up window, appears below.)

7. Disconnect the power cord from access point.
8. Press and hold the reset button on access point. Plug in the power while holding the reset button. Wait 20 seconds before releasing the button.

The TFTP server automatically transfers the firmware to the WAG302.

The access point automatically reboots after the successful TFTP transaction.
