How to upgrade the Firmware - Almond+ 2014

The Almond+ has two different options when it comes to upgrading the firmware. We'll cover both methods here.

LCD UI

Note: We've found a minor issue with the LCD UI update tool that we're working on resolving and as such we're not offering firmware updates via the LCD UI at the moment.

Web UI

Using the web UI to update the firmware on the Almond+ is fairly straight forward. First download the latest firmware from Securifi. Next, open a web browser window and enter the IP address of your Almond+, by default this is 10.10.10.254. When prompted to log in, the default login is root/root. You should now see the screen below, unless you've previously entered the web UI. Please locate the Software options, as highlighted in the image below.

The next step involves locating the firmware file that you've downloaded by clicking on Chose file under the Flash new firmware image header. Browse to the firmware file and click Open (this might vary by your operating system). Note: Make sure Keep settings is ticked if you want to save your settings.

Now click on Flash image as highlighted in the screenshot below.

The firmware will be uploaded to your router and at this point you need to click on Proceed to flash the firmware of the Almond+.

You'll be seeing the following screen while the new firmware is being updated. Your Almond+ will reboot and once it has rebooted, the new firmware will be installed.
