Web OTA Upgrade Guide

Web OTA lets SuperKVM devices and related software receive updates over the web so purchased hardware keeps gaining features and fixes after shipping.

What Web OTA covers

SuperKVM documents web-based OTA for KVM hardware firmware upgrades and keeps client apps current via download channels. Always follow the wiki steps for your exact model before upgrading.

  • Hardware OTA notes: https://wiki.superkvm.com/hardware/usb
  • Software downloads: https://www.superkvm.com/softlist

Recommended upgrade flow

Use this checklist unless your model wiki says otherwise:

  • Confirm model and current firmware/app version
  • Back up any custom VID/PID or script settings you care about
  • Use a stable power and USB/network path during upgrade
  • Follow wiki OTA steps; do not unplug mid-write
  • Re-verify HID mouse rate and video path after reboot

Why OTA matters for buyers

USB KVM hardware is long-lived. OTA plus open protocols means the same device can gain clipboard paths, power control via expansion boards, and client improvements without replacing the box.

FAQ

Is Web OTA the same as downloading a new desktop client?

No. Client installers update the control PC apps; Web OTA updates device firmware/bootloader paths described in the hardware wiki. You often need both over a product’s life.
