Acquiring Firmware Updates
The Easy Way
Firmware can often be found on the manufacturer's official website, along with patch notes, user manuals, and heavily abridged 'Data Sheets' that may occasionally include some interesting information about the device.
The Fun Way
Some devices attempt to prevent self-updating by limiting access to the firmware and pushing out updates to devices connected to the internet. Thankfully, programs like WireShark can be used to record the information sent from the manufacturer to the device.
