#) **Upload Firmware**: If you have a new firmware image that you have already downloaded to your computer from the AREDN |trade| website, click the *Browse* button and select the firmware file from the location on your computer where you saved it. Click *Upload* and the file will be uploaded and installed on the node.
#) **Download Firmware**: If your node has Internet access (either from its WAN interface or from the mesh) you can use the *Download Firmware* option. Click *Refresh* to update the list of available images. Select the image to download, click *Download*, and wait for the firmware to download and be installed.
#) **Download Firmware**: If your node has Internet access you can use the *Download Firmware* option. Click *Refresh* to update the list of available images. The source URLs that are queried are those listed on the *Advanced Configuration* page of your node. Select the image to download, click *Download*, and wait for the firmware to download and be installed.
#) **Load Local Firmware**: If you need to upgrade the firmware on a node which has a marginal connection to the network, the standard web/http method may not reliably transfer the image to the node. In this situation you may want to use an independent means of uploading the firmware to the node before beginning the upgrade process. Choose an upload method such as ``scp`` (secure copy) which tracks the status of the file transfer and continues the upload in the event of a network interruption. Transfer the new firmware file to your node, place it in the ``/tmp/web`` folder, and name it ``local_firmware.bin``. Refresh your node's *Administration* page and once the page detects the ``/tmp/web/local_firmware.bin`` file, then the *Apply Local Firmware* button will become active. Press this button to begin the update process using the firmware you previously uploaded.
