Problems solved by technology
[0004] However, if an unexpected situation occurs when the set-top box needs to perform network upgrades, such as an unexpected power failure of the built-in WiFi firmware, the built-in WiFi firmware is in an error state, or the upgrade program of the built-in WiFi firmware is destroyed, etc., making the set-top box unable to perform network communication. It may cause the built-in WiFi firmware to be unable to be upgraded through the network, or even cause the built-in WiFi firmware to be damaged and cannot be restored, resulting in problems such as the original built-in WiFi firmware not being able to be repaired, and the user interface not being improved, which greatly affects the performance of the entire set-top box and users. normal use

The invention relates to a method and a device for upgrading built-in WiFi firmware of a set top box, and the set top box. The method comprises the steps of when an upgrade file of the built-in WiFi firmware is downloaded, acquiring a result of a previous upgrade of the built-in WiFi firmware, selecting a network upgrade mode or a serial port upgrade mode as a current upgrade mode according to the result of the previous upgrade of the built-in WiFi firmware, and upgrading the built-in WiFi firmware according to the upgrade file and the network upgrade mode or the serial port upgrade mode. According to the method provided by the embodiment of the invention, the situation that the built-in WiFi firmware cannot be upgraded due to the fact that the power of the built-in WiFi firmware is failed unexpectedly, an upgrade program is damaged or the built-in WiFi firmware is in an error state is avoided, a possibility that the firmware cannot be upgraded can be prevented in advance, and thus bugs in the built-in WiFi firmware can be effectively remedied, and the whole performance of the set top box can be greatly improved.
Description
technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of digital television, in particular to a method and device for upgrading a set-top box built-in WiFi firmware and the set-top box. Background technique [0002] With the development of information and communication technology, digital TV technology is becoming more and more mature. With the popularization of digital TV, the set-top box used for disseminating and converting digital programs has become a necessary household appliance. After the set-top box integrates the broadband network and the radio and television network, it can connect to the network through the built-in WiFi firmware of the set-top box to realize services such as web browsing, video-on-demand, and downloading more multimedia resources from the server, which provides a positive effect on user experience. [0003] During the use of set-top boxes, customers may put forward new requirements for product functions, so that the functions of se...
