Hi @Alda,

Yes, all settings are retained. And if something should go wrong, you can always boot the normal image from the Stored backup firmware menu (until the normal image is overwritten by another update).

Yes. The stored backup firmware is always the penultimate version that was installed. See my screenshots.

How did you download the file? I tried 5-6 times, but download stops at ca 220Mo : connexion lost…
