You may find forums or blogs claiming to have direct download URLs like:
http://firmware.nokia.com/beacon2/beacon2_v1.2.3.bin
Caution: Most of these are outdated, broken, or potentially malicious. Unlike open-source router firmware (e.g., OpenWrt or DD-WRT), the Nokia Beacon 2 uses signed firmware. Installing an unofficial or mismatched file will likely fail validation or brick the device.
The Beacon 2 checks for updates automatically during off-peak hours (usually between 2:00 AM and 4:00 AM). Ensure the unit stays powered on and connected to the internet.
If an automatic update fails, you can force an update using the Nokia Wi-Fi App (available on iOS and Android).
