Described is a system and method for automatically updating a firmware program. During an initialization process of a portable card (e.g., a wireless radio card), a first version of the firmware program is determined. The first version is a version which is currently stored in a non-volatile memory of the card that is connected with a computing device. The first version is compared with a second version of the firmware program. The first version is automatically updated with the second version in the non-volatile memory if the second version is a subsequent verison of the firmware program. After the firmware is updated, the card is activated using the second version. |
