Delivery

The firmware is released only in one format: Liveburner.

To update the firmware from v3.x to v4.x, it is mandatory to use the liveburner package. See system upgrade page.

Download

Due to multiple KerOS changes, direct update in v4.x IS NOT COMPATIBLE from firmware v2.x & v1.x.
It is required first to update the gateway in v3.x to be able to update it after with the liveburner package v4.x.
For the update in v3.x, please refer to the Wirnet iBTS wiki, firmware v3.4.5 page.
