What’s new in the LigoPTP v.6.44 firmware release?
Special Notes
  • Due to extensive features in the new firmware (v.6.44), it is not possible to downgrade to firmware v.6.3x. When upgrading from v.6.11 (or older), both sides must be upgraded to v.6.32. Otherwise the link might not communicate. V.6.32 is a transitional piece of firmware allowing devices to be further upgraded to v.6.44. This version includes a major enhancement to the wireless driver that requires both sides of the link to be upgraded.
  • There are different firmware versions for each model based on hardware revisions (v.6.32 only).

What’s new in the LigoPTP v.6.00 firmware release.

Initial Release

Due to a hardware revision, there are now two different firmware versions to choose from. Depending on the device’s hardware revision, users will want to load the appropriate image.

When uploading firmware, there is an internal check that does not allow upgrading to the wrong firmware. Therefore, if the wrong firmware is uploaded, the upgrade process will be unsuccessful.

At the moment, there are two different models:

  • WILIBOARD
  • WBD422

Version-status

To determine what hardware revision the device is currently using, look at the main status page, which includes a Firmware version section.
If the firmware is WILI-BRIDGE.WILIBOARD, users must download the version of the firmware with WILIBOARD in the title.

Version-wiliboard

If the firmware is WILI-BRIDGE.WBD422, users must download the version of the firmware with WBD422 in the title.

Version-wbd422
