the latest available version.

either a wired or wireless network connection, you will also be
able to automatically update your firmware from this menu if a
later version exists. Please read the next chapter about how to
update your player

guides you through the same basic and easy setup procedure as
when you powered ON the player for the first time.

Linksys is dedicated to improving its products and to ensuring
that you are always able to obtain the latest features and improve-
ments via firmware updates. This section explains how to do this.

Obtaining new firmware with the player connected

If your player is connected to the Internet via a network, obtaining
and installing a new firmware update has never been easier.

To check for updates, simply enter the setup menu by press-
ing SETUP on your remote control, go to the MISCELLANEOUS
SETTINGS section, and select FIRMWARE UPDATE. A message
will appear telling you whether a Firmware update is available. If
new firmware is available, simply follow the steps On-Screen. The
Firmware will automatically download and be written to the KiSS
1600. This step takes a few minutes depending on your connec-
tion. A REBOOT message will appear when the update has been
installed. After you have restarted your player, you will return to
the Quick Setup. Complete the easy steps to start using it again.

Whenever updates are available, they are also posted to the
Linksys website in the support section, so that even when your
player is not connected to the Internet and you have access to
our website from elsewhere, you will still be able to obtain the
latest updates
