How to Update

1. 1. Insert the Easy Wireless Stick for which you want to update the firmware into the computer’s USB port.

   NOTE: If the [AutoPlay] screen appears, close it. If the software starts automatically, exit it.

   

2. 2. Run the “FirmUpdateTool_uw100_****.exe” (example: FirmUpdateTool_uw100_4013.exe) firmware update tool that was generated after downloading and uncompressing.

   NOTE:
   If the [User Account Control] dialog box (i.e., “Do you want to allow the following program
   from an unknown publisher to make change to this computer?” message) appears, select [Yes].

   

3. 3. Verify the version number displayed in the update confirmation screen, and click the [Update] button to start the firmware update.

   

   NOTE:

   • The overwrite process takes about 4 minutes.

   • After overwrite starts, all buttons in the update tool screen are disabled.

   

   Caution

   Do not remove the Easy Wireless Stick from the USB port or attempt to remove the [EasyWS] CD drive while overwrite is in progress.

   NOTE:
   The Easy Wireless Stick will restart during the firmware overwrite process. Therefore, depending on your computer’s AutoPlay settings, the [AutoPlay] screen may appear, Explorer may open and the contents of the [EasyWS] folder may be displayed, or the PDF file in the [EasyWS] folder may open. In such cases, close the windows or files, and wait for update to complete.

4. 4. When overwrite is complete, the [OK] button is enabled. Click the [OK] button to exit the update tool.

   

5. 5. Check the firmware version of the Easy Wireless Stick and verify that update has been performed properly.

   How to confirm the version

NOTE:

• If the firmware overwrite fails due to, for example, the Easy Wireless Stick being removed during the process, follow steps 1 to 3 in “How to Update” and try to update again. (This only applies when updating from firmware Ver. 2.0.0.0 or later.)

For specific instructions, refer to the following manual.
