If you have a black WMS stick that won't update to the latest version, you need to do a couple of manual upgrades to get to the latest version:
1) Download these two files below:
2) Open the webpage of the stick from the link on your desktop. Click the blue config button and then perform a manual update using the first file above, which is 1.31.018.bin. When that is finished, it will reload the web page.
3) Click the blue config button again and run the manual update again, this time using the second file, that is called wms-2.03.028.bin
4) When that finishes, the webpage will reload, and there should be a button that says 'Update Available'. Click that button and follow the instructions to update the stick to the latest version.
