Not that I don't know how to do it...

....but my PM is hid away, 

To get the networkcable connected you have to remove the other cables.

Opening and closing the PM wasn't that easy either.

Some people even complain that the updating-process is not smooth at all.

My BM runs perfect at the moment.

These things all together tell me NOT to do the update at the moment. So why should I?

Grrr! millemissen

Sure, it´s up to everyone do decide on upgrade or not.

Since you wrote that the "update procedure" was a pain, I thought there was a problem.

Agree that its tricky to open the PM, and if it´s tucked away that adds to it.

But the update procedure as such is quite easy I must say.

Thanks Hiort,

I did follow all the steps, but the last step "app will guide me part" is not happening......

Weird thing is that if I connect PM to ethernet cable first and switch on the power, my iPhone would not find PM at all, but when disconnected from ethernet cable, iPhone would find PM.

I'll give it  a try again, hopefully it works !!

Having to plug it into the base station seems a bit old fashion to me. I understand why they feel it should be done this way, but there are lots of devices that don't need a wired connection to be updated. For example, ATV, Ipod Touch, Iphone, Ipad, etc. 

I'm the first one to admit that wifi can be flaky, but surely having to uninstall your system to update is not the best way.

I will do the firmware update.

Presently my PM is connected to the network so I don't see why I need to connect to Ethernet. But if its the way then so be it.

Perhaps there might be a firmware update that fixes this lol.

I'm not having any issues with my PM. I love it! And the aesthetics.
