mbNET.mini: Transferring a Configuration via USB

Transferring a Configuration via USB

Applies to: • mbNET.mini

Requirements:

You need:

The router with the current firmware version. (At least firmware 2.3.0.)
A USB stick formatted to FAT / FAT32
A configuration file suitable for the router mbconnect24.initial or mbconnect24.mbne

You can download the file via the download icon and the selection [Download Configuration to PC] from the portal.

Note:

Preparation

Copy the file mbconnect24.initial or mbconnect24.mbne to the root directory of the USB stick
The file must not be renamed

Check if the device is ready for operation: (LED Pwr Rdy lit)
Insert the USB stick into the USB port of the device. Pay attention to the LEDUsr

Once the device recognizes the configuration file, the LED Usr will start blinking slowly (Blink frequency: 1.5Hz)
Press the Function button within 10 seconds
Hold the button down until the LED Usr lights up permanently
Release the Function button

A mbconnect24.initial will be deleted by the router after reading from the USB storage,
a mbconnect24.mbne will be renamed to Xmbconnect24.mbne.

The router will read and activate the configuration. When the LED Usr is off, Pwr and Rdy are lit again, the device is ready for use.

Note:

If the configuration is the initial variant, the router attempts to connect to the portal to retrieve its complete configuration. This process takes a few minutes with a good internet connection.

Notes:

If the USB stick contains both the firmware and a mbCONNECT24 portal configuration, the firmware from the mbNET is always recognized first (Fc1 Fc3 blinking). If you do not press the button Dial Out/ FCT(from HW:06) within 10 seconds, the mbNET will switch to the portal configuration (Fc1 Fc2 blinking). If you also do not respond within 10 seconds here, the device will revert to normal mode.
In rare cases, the USB stick used may be unsuitable for this process. In this case, please use another USB stick.
