I deal with broadcast equipments and that is often the case with changing firmware.
YMMV

And yes, you do not need to be connected to a car to do the update
Sorry, but I completely disagree with your assessment of Durametric firmware/software updates. I've owned Durametric systems since they first came out and have never had a issue with updates; in fact, I look forward to them as they constantly add new features and correct existing problems, which is exactly what I would expect of them.
