I am still trying to track down the correct version of Linux to see if there is
a way to upgrade some of the software.
It is worth a shot.
It really is a terrific device.
I have the Icon, but I think I would have preferred the Braille plus, but it
was a gift.
Still I am not disappointed it the performance.

Hi there,
I believe you are receiving this error message because the update server in
question no longer exists. I don't remember when it finally went offline, but
it has been a while now, as the product is no longer being supported by APH or
Levelstar.
I think the latest version is 2.2, build 53. At least that's the latest one
for the Icon. If you have this version installed, that's as up to date as you
can possibly get for this device. You can find out which software version you
are running in the Status menu. Now, if your software version is older than
that, I'm not sure how you can get an update, unless someone else on this list
has access to the latest update that was made available. Because I have the
Icon, and not the Braille Plus, I don't thin I would have the one you need.
Sorry to have to give you that news, but that's the way things are in the world
of electronics. Devices tend to have a limited life span, and actually, this
one had a fairly long one compared to a lot of electronics in today's market.
Hope this helps.
Have a great first full week of 2016!
Clinton

Hello.
I just recently got my Braille Plus back. I connected to the Internet, but when
I checked for updates, there was an error. Why is this? Why does the Braille
Plus tell me there was an error connecting to the update server when I know for
a fact I was connected to the Internet?
