Orange Livebox - Software Update

[Guest pisquee]

OK, Orange are rolling out auto updates of the new firmware for their LiveBoxes. You can either wait til it updates itself overnight, or do a manual update.

The new firmware enables the USB port, enabling you to use the router as a USB print server. It also enables the Livebox's bluetooth adapter, although there is currently no use fo it - Orange say they are enabling it ready for when they launch appropriate services.

I haven't tried putting my printer onto the Livebox yet, but can confirm the port works as I can now charge my Hermes from it, and in the Livebox webpage it recognises the phone being plugged in.

I can plug a memory card reader into the box, and it powers up, but no obvious way to access it from a PC.
