        plus, you'd need to enable the network, set it to DHCP.

        log onto the home hub, see if it's giving it an IP

                  as ft says though if you have the latest image there is no update available. if its 1.0 then 1.1 is the upgrade. if you are connecting to the server ok and nothing happening you may well be on 1.1.
