How to Upgrade Firmware for Access Points with DWC-1000?
NOTE – The firmware upgrade for the access points will need a tftp server. We recommend using TFTPd32
Step 1 – Download the latest version(s) of firmware for the following access-points:
DWL-2600
DWL-3600
DWL-6600
DWL-8600
Once downloaded the firmware(s) you need, please put this file into the root folder of the tftp server.
For example: C:\Program Files\Tftpd64
With regards to the above screen shot, the “Current Directory” has been set to.
C\Program Files\Tftpd64, you must also select the IP of where the tftp Server resides on. In this example it is 192.168.1.169.
Step 2 – Access the web GUI of the DWC-1000.
Step 3 – Go to Setup > AP Management > Software Download.
Step 4 – Here you will see there are separate sections for each AP Model to upgrade their corresponding firmware.
To ensure for a correct upgrade of firmware, please follow these guide-lines:
Server Address: Insert the IP address of the PC where the TFTP reside on.
File Path: This related to where the firmware is located on the TFTP, here you do not need to write nothing.
File Name: Insert the FULL name and extension of the firmware.
Group Size: The DWC-1000 is able to update up to 6 access-points at one single time. If you have more than 6, you must repeat this process.

Managed AP: Here will show the access-points to be upgrades. Please remember, the update may take from 10 to 12 minutes.
