Firmware filenames and verification - May 2026 reference
How IceRiver firmware archives are named, why exact model matching matters, and what to verify before flashing.
ICERIVER firmware references use model-specific codes such as ICERIVER-KAS-KS5L-20240706 or ICERIVER-ALEO-AE0-20250501. Always match the code to the exact model string printed in the miner web UI.
We recommend downloading firmware only from ICERIVER file.iceriver.io links or the ICERIVER firmware portal. Third-party mirrors may serve outdated or repackaged files.
After download, verify size and file details when ICERIVER publishes them. Keep pool and wallet backups before running upgrades on production fleets.
Verification checklist — August 2026 update
Firmware listings change. On August 6, 2026, the ICERIVER portal was rechecked as the primary source and contained newer entries than this local archive.
- Match the web-interface model code to the physical label.
- Check the filename and release date on the ICERIVER portal.
- Confirm the exact model and filename before upload.
- Back up pool, worker, and network settings.
- Update one miner first and observe stability before a fleet rollout.
What file verification can and cannot prove
A matching file record confirms that downloaded bytes match the checked file. It does not prove that a package fits another model, remains current, or is risk-free.
