Updating firmware for the base/restoring firmware updates,
activating/deactivating automatic updates
You can start firmware updates and downgrades via the Web page:
Settings ¢Management ¢ Firmware Update
Regular updates to the base firmware and the provider profile for your VoIP connec-
tions (general provider data) are made available on an Internet configuration
server. You can download these updates onto your base as required. The URL for
this server is stored in the base.
You have the following options:
u Starting a firmware update
If a new version of the firmware is available, this is downloaded to the base and
the base is restarted. A firmware update lasts around six minutes. The duration
also depends on the bandwidth of your DSL connection.
u Enabling/disabling the automatic version check
When the version check is enabled, the phone checks on a daily basis whether
the Gigaset configuration server has a new version of the phone firmware.
If the telephone is not connected to the Internet at the time when the check is
to be performed (e.g., because the router is disabled), the check is performed as
soon as the phone is reconnected to the Internet.
If a new version is available, a message to this effect is shown on the display of
the registered handsets. You can start the update of the firmware on one of the
handsets.
u Downgrading firmware
You have the following options:
– You can reload the firmware version that was loaded before the last update
on the base.
– You can reload the firmware version that was loaded by default onto the
phone.
The selected firmware is reloaded on the phone and the current firmware is
overwritten.
