AMPLIFi Firmware Updates

For optimal performance, always run the latest firmware in your AMPLIFi
FX100. Your AMPLIFi Remote application will inform you whenever a
firmware update is available, so you'll always know you have the latest
version!
While a firmware update is possible via your iOS or Android device,
completion may take up to one hour due to the limited connectivity
speed of Bluetooth. We highly recommend using the Line 6 Updater
application for Mac and PC computers (available from http://line6.com/
software). It is a free download, contains all instructions for successful
firmware updates, and best of all, completes the update in just a few
minutes.
