First of all, I use Linux, so any Windows-based help will
not be useful. I wanted to get that out there off the bat
because the MS website only seems to offer support in terms
of automatic update utilities.
I would like to update the firmware on my MN-500 Wireless
Base Station. I have no particular reason to do so, but it
seems like a good idea. Can somebody tell me where I can
download the actual files?

I would like to install it the old fashioned way, too.

Thank you. Winzip wouldn't view internal files, so I used the command line
run C:\Folder\Folder\MsbnDownload.exe -d. Then I was able to point to the
correct file. My old firmware was from 2002.
