If you have lots of modules that need updating to the latest firmware and you don’t have a one-click installer then it can very time consuming using Developer Studio to do it manually.
This semi-automated approach using the SW BinUpdater utility works for me on the SL8082T:
(1) Download a Windows executable installer for your module. I use “R7.52.2.A5.201411281219.SL808x exe” for the SL8082T
(2) Disconnect your modem from the PC
(3) Double-click the Windows executable. It will say “Unable to detect modem”. Close the application
(4) Copy this folder to your desktop or other location: “C:\Users[i]username[/i]\AppData\Local\Temp\BinUpdater”
(5) Copy your downloaded boot and firmware CWE files into this folder
(6) Run the update utility from the command line as follows:
binupdater.exe -l BinUpdater.log -e -d -v -cd=1 -f %s %s %s"%(BOOT_CWE,OPENAT_CWE))
…where BOOT_CWE and OPENATCWE are the filenames of the CWE files you want to install.
By adding this command into a simple batch script you can easily update multiple modules.
