Here is the BLGW:

And here an older version of the BLC NL/ML:

I want to play with a BLGW to see how the Beosound 5 can be controlled via iPad App Beolink 2.

Instead of buying a used BLGW I could temporarily turn a spare BLC NL/ML into a BLGW - that is my idea behind the question...

Thanks for your Input!

Ralf

both BLC are exactly the same. Just strip away the plastics strips on the BLC without AUX. You'll see the AUX connections are present. 

Same on the other side of this BLC

Note: even the BLGW have them!

Thanks. I thought so About the BLCs, too.

But how about the Beolink Gateway?

It does look the same as well. So only a Software issue e.g. you Can Change a converter to a Gateway (and vice versa)?

Hi Ralf, were you able to find a way to change the firmware? I found the latest firmware for the BLGW online, just need a way to upload it to the NL/ML converter! Rob.

You refer to the file 1.4.0.20048-signed.bin.zip?

I got this as well but never tried to upgrade the spare converter...

Bought a used MLGW but was not satified so I gave up on B&O home Automation for now.

Hi Ralf, I am thinking of getting a used MLGW too, what is it you don't like about it? Regards, Rob.

is there already a solutions to upload the BLGW Firmware to a NL/ML Converter? I have one spare and would love to experiment with a BLGW.
