They're not talking about rebooting, but doing factory reset and then updating the firmware.

They suggested just a reboot back when I first posted this. Now it seems a bit more complicated than just that.

Both. Updating the firmware amounts to two resets, one before and one after (although I think the updating does that automagically).
