WARNING

Make sure you are selecting the right Device Category (2.4GHz or 900MHz) that's appropriate for the hardware you have. You cannot flash a 2.4GHz module with the firmware for the 900MHz module and expect it to work properly. Likewise, you cannot flash a 900MHz module with the firmware for the 2.4GHz module. They have different sets of hardware.

You can damage your hardware if you do so. You have been warned!
