Updating the Firmware Manually

26.3 Updating the Firmware Manually
In some cases it is not possible to perform an automatic up-
date, for instance when the FRITZ!Box is not connected to the
Internet. Then you have the option of performing an update
manually.
Downloading the FRITZ!OS File
Before you can perform a manual update, you must download
an up-to-date FRITZ!OS file from the Internet (using your
neighbor's or friend's computer, or at an Internet café) and
save it on your computer or on a connected storage medium.

printed on the sticker on the underside of the housing.
Download the latest FRITZ!OS file for your FRITZ!Box with

Perform an update only if the downloaded FRITZ!OS is a
newer version than the FRITZ!OS currently installed.
