I've been away for a few months enjoying BBQing. I've come back to find a couple of SW updates, and want to update my HM 4.0.
Do I have to update to v8 before I update to v9?
I tried following the instructions for the v9 upgrade, but when I go to System --> Backup, the flash new firmware on the bottom says 'Sorry, there is no sysupgrade support present, a new firmware image must be flashed manually. Please refer to the OpenWrt wiki for device specific install instructions.' The only option I look to have is to Generate Archive or restore backup. Should I use one of those?
Once you help me through that one, where do I find the file? Do I update from local machine, online repository, or bundled firmware in ... ?
And one final question, will I lose all my settings (WiFi, Alarms, minor changes to Heatermeter HTML)?
THanks so much! Sorry for not being the most well versed IT/SW guy trying to have the best time BBQing!
