Manual:Bootloader upgrade
This page shows how to upgrade the Bootloader firmware of a RouterBOARD device.
Simple Upgrade
• Run command /system routerboard upgrade
• Reboot your router to apply the upgrade (/system reboot)]
Note! If you need to install a different version than included in your "routerboard.npk - Upload the latest
RouterBOOT firmware to your router's FTP, the latest firmware is available on routerboard.com
[2]
and then follow
above steps.
Checking RouterBOOT version
This command shows the current RouterBOOT version of your device, and available upgrade which is either
included in routerboard.npk package, or if you uploaded a FWF file corresponding to device model:
[admin@MikroTik] > system routerboard print
routerboard: yes
model: "750"
serial-number: "1FC201DD513B"
current-firmware: "2.18"
upgrade-firmware: "2.20"
[admin@MikroTik] >
In this case you see, that there is a newer version of the Bootloader firmware available already inside your current
RouterOS version.
Xmodem Method
If there is no IP connectivity with your RouterBOARD, you can also use the Serial Console XMODEM transfer to
send the FWF file to the router, while connected via Serial Console. From the Bootloader menu it's possible to
upgrade the firmware with this method. This method is the last resort, and should be used only if the first two
methods are not available.
