+# *WiFiNINA* firmware update
+
+Nowadays, fall 2019, we still receive *WiFiNINA* arduinos with firmware 1.0.0.0 version (Arduino Uno WiFi Rev 2, Arduino NANO 33 IoT, Arduino MKR WiFi 1010, Arduino MKR VIDOR 4000).
+
+***It is highly recommended to update *WiFiNINA* firmware to latest version.***
+
+## Known issue with 1.0.0.0 version
+`WiFi.config()` does not work, we can't set static IP address.
+
+That's a very good reason to update the firmware.
+
+## Update *WiFiNINA* firmware how-to
+1. Upload *FirmwareUpdater* sketch
+2. Open **WiFi101 / WiFiNINA Firmware Updater**
+3. Test board connection
+4. Update *WiFiNINA* firmware 
+
+
+### 1. Upload *FirmwareUpdater* sketch
+
+Load the *FirmwareUpdater* sketch from **File > Examples > WiFiNINA > Tools > FirmwareUpdater**
+![](wifinina-firmware-1.png)
+
+
+### 2. Open *WiFi101 / WiFiNINA Firmware Updater*
+
+Open the firmware updater from **Tools > WiFi101 / WiFiNINA Firmware Updater**
+![](wifinina-firmware-2.png)
+
+
+### 3. Test board connection
+
+Select the board port:
+
+![](wifinina-firmware-3.png)
+
+
+And click **Test connection**:
+
+![](wifinina-firmware-4.png)
+
+
+### 4. Update *WiFiNINA* firmware 
+
+Select the latest firmware available and click **Update Firmware**:
+![](wifinina-firmware-5.png)
+
+Update process will take about a minute then you're done:
