18.2 Firmware Upgrade
The firmware of Pepwave MAX is upgradeable through Web Admin Interface.
Firmware upgrade functionality is located at System > Firmware:
There are two ways to upgrade the unit. The first method is online firmware upgrade. The system can
Check, Download and Upgrade over the Internet. The second method is to upload a firmware file
manually.
Click on the Check again button to use online upgrade. With online upgrade, Pepwave MAX checks
online for new firmware. If a new firmware is available, the Pepwave MAX will automatically download the
firmware. The upgrade process will subsequently be automatically initiated.
You may also download a firmware image from the Pepwave web site and update the unit manually. Click
Browse to select the firmware file from the local computer, and then click Manual Upgrade to send the
firmware to Pepwave MAX. Pepwave MAX will then automatically initiate the firmware upgrade process.
Please note that all Pepwave devices are equipped to be able to store two different firmware versions in
two different partitions. A firmware upgrade preformed will always replace the inactive partition. If you
want to keep the inactive firmware, you can simply reboot your device with the inactive firmware and then
perform the firmware upgrade.
The firmware upgrade process may not necessarily preserve the previous configuration, and the behavior varies
on a case-by-case basis. Consult the Release Notes for the particular firmware version.
Do not disconnect the power during firmware upgrade process.
Do not attempt to upload a non-firmware file, or a firmware file that is not qualified, or not supported, by Pepwave.
Upgrading a Pepwave MAX with an invalid firmware file will damage the unit, and may void the warranty.
If the firmware is rolled back from 5.x to 4.x, the configurations will be lost.
