      Thank you
      Make sure your firmware file-type matches the the method you are using to update it. For instance...SD card uses one type, and uploading through your network connection uses a different type. SOP is different. Naming your file folder correctly is important. You know what? Get a manual...it will tell you all you need to know. It is easy to update firmware, but proper procedure is important. Good Luck!

        Normally firmware is downloaded as part of a .zip file. The .fwu or .rfu files need to be extracted to the proper location for installation.
