Update Firmware

Why update the firmware?

To benefit from the latest features of the EZCast Pro Box II, you can quickly and conveniently install the newest firmware update via the Internet. When installing a new firmware, the previous settings are retained. The EZCast Pro device requires an Internet connection for this. This is indicated by the Wi-Fi symbol at the top right and an assigned IP address from your router labeled Infrastructure IP at the bottom left of the home screen, as shown below:

If your EZCast Pro Box II is not connected to the Internet, please check the Wi-Fi/LAN.
