Re: [AVR-Chat] firmware update via wireless

2006-08-31 by Dennis Clark

You'd better use a very robust error detection/correction packet scheme. 
  Wireless is inherently unreliable.  Also, you'll need to be sure that 
your device can deal with a corrupted download and still be able to be 
put into "update" mode.  There is no reason it can't be done, but I 
recommend a very paranoid protocol to handle it!
