Updating the firmware if the eddi is connected to a separate hub / or gateway device and does not have its own direct internet connection
If the eddi does not have it's own internet connection then the firmware can be updated over the wireless from another zappi, eddi or libbi with a vHub (a gateway device) then the firmware can be updated over the radio link.
This option is accessible from the Bootloader menu.
