SWI9X30C_02.24.05.06 Does Not Seem To Update EM7455

I have a client with 30 Lenovo Thinkpad X260s with EM7455s and after downloading SWI9X30C_02.24.05.06 from the Sierra Wireless website and opening the .exe file, it seems to work but after I check the firmware version it still shows the old version SWI9X30C_02.24.03.00.

Any ideas, are others seeing the same behavior or any idea how to fix the issue?

Thanks

Hello,

I’ve done the same for EM7455 on DELL E7270 running Windows 10 Pro 64 bit where result as below:

OK

Does that firmware flashing finished completely ?

I solved my own issue, it turns out that Skylight Connection manager was not allowing the flash to take because I had SkyLight Connection manager set to automatically flash firmware.
