If an
earlier software upgrade was unsuccessful,
then the modem will power-up in a bootrom
mode, and the LEDs will show a pattern of
flashing and solid red/green colors (refer to
the user guide for more details). You can also
force the modem to power-up in this mode by
pressing the audio button when you power-up
the modem. The upgrader can still be used to
re-upgrade the modem if it is in bootrom mode.
