Downloading software files from the Siemens Server
The following is the URL for the Siemens Server for the Gigaset product family:
http://www.ic.siemens.com/mySiemens/full/1,1860,3_GIGASET3070ISDN.html *
These pages will provide you with the latest information on the Gigaset product
family. You can also find out when a new version of the firmware for
Gigaset 3070/75isdn will be ready to download.
In order to be able to download files from the Siemens Server you will require
an Internet browser and Internet access.
Start your Internet browser.
Call up the following address
http://www.ic.siemens.com/mySiemens/full/1,1860,3_GIGASET3070ISDN_5_1_0,00.html

Save the new version of the firmware for Gigaset 3070/75isdn to your hard
disk.
Start the EXE file (which unzips automatically) and then follow the instructions
in the readme.txt file.
*. If you are following the online instructions (provided on the CD-ROM, file with the ex-
tension PDF) and you see this hand next to an HTML address, simply click your
mouse to go directly to that address. If the address has been changed and a new po-
sition created, the system automatically follows the set link. For this purpose, you will
need a browser installed on your system and access to the Internet.
Please note that new versions of the firmware can only be transferred
to the base station via the USB interface and thus with Windows 98
and later.
