🛠️ Troubleshooting Common Update Problems

Ran into a snag? Don’t worry. Here are quick fixes.

Problem: “No updates available” but my version is old.

Solution: Your provider might have a custom firmware. Contact them for the correct update file and instructions for a USB manual update.

Problem: The update failed or froze.

Solution:

1. Unplug the power cable from the MAG box.
2. Wait 60 seconds.
3. Plug it back in and restart.

If it still fails, you may need to perform a manual recovery using a USB stick. Search online for “MAG [your model] recovery image”.
