Prerequisites

Cloud Management

: If your devices are managed via the cloud, you can often push updates directly through the Mimosa Cloud Portal. Mimosa recommends upgrading to 2.5.0 first

  1. Browser Compatibility: Mimosa recommends using Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox to access the C5c web interface during the upgrade process. Internet Explorer and Microsoft Edge sometimes encounter issues with the file upload process on this firmware generation.
  2. File Format: The firmware file typically ends in .bin. Ensure the file has not been unzipped twice (sometimes browsers auto-extract, leaving a file without an extension).
  3. Upgrade Path: If you are upgrading from firmware version 2.2.0 or older, Mimosa recommends upgrading to 2.5.0 first, then to 2.8.1, to ensure the configuration file migrates correctly.
