-===== Upgrading OpenWrt =====+Flash instruction (using U-Boot CLI and tftp server):
  
 +  - Configure PC with static IP 192.168.1.10 and tftp server.
 +  - Rename ''...sysupgrade.bin'' filename to ''firmware.bin'' and place it in tftp server directory.
 +  - Connect PC with one of RJ45 ports, power up the board and press "enter" key to access U-Boot CLI.
 +  - Use the following command to update the device to OpenWrt: "run lfw".
 +
 +Flash instruction (using U-Boot web-based recovery):
 +
 +  - Configure PC with static IP 192.168.1.xxx(2-254)/24.
 +  - Connect PC with one of RJ45 ports, press the reset button, power up the board and keep button pressed for around 6-7 seconds, until LEDs start flashing.
 +  - Open your browser and enter 192.168.1.1, select "sysupgrade" image and click the upgrade button.
