How to perform an ICOM firmware update with ease

How to update ICOM firmware with ISTA+

Many people have experienced issues updating ICOM firmware via ISTA+ since the last two ICOM FW updates. When they try to update it says ISTA is starting the update process, but it disappears after a few seconds and the “Firmware” information is still displayed on ISTA. Of course, there is another way to update it: via a web interface, the same way the ICOM A2s can be updated.
