Firmware updates for the Freesat Humax HDR are done OTA via satellite or by downloading onto a usb pen drive via the humax website, it does have an ethernet port but is for "future use" whatever that means!

I think its for on demand tv. Probably will come to life when internet speeds are increased through optical.
