Cautions during the updating operation:
1) Do not turn off the "DHCP" setting when you update the unit. (Initialization is
turning on.) Please execute it under the guidance of the IT staff with computer
skills when the setting of "DHCP" is unavoidably turned off by limiting the
electronic environment, and you set IP Address, the subnet mask, the default
gateway, and DNS, etc. for yourself. When a mistake is made in the setting with
"DHCP" turned off, the unit might not operate, and in the worst situation the unit
can be damaged. Please do not touch the setting of "DHCP" except in special
circumstances.
2) When the customer uses "Netgear router 614 Series" for updating, deactivate
"uPnP" in the router.
3) Do not turn off the Power of the unit during the updating operation.
4) If the Display has a fixed indication during the updating operation, wait longer
than total updating time. Then, turn off the Power of the unit and start the
updating operation from the beginning again.
5) The unit won't break down while updating it when the power supply of the unit
is turned off or the cable of the Internet is pulled out.
6) Please turn off and turn on the power supply when the unit becomes unstable.
7) Please execute initialization when it is not improved. Repair by service when it
is not improved.
