SSW upgrade using passive_ftp was stopped in August 2019. The current way to upgrade SSW is to use the WGET executable. If you have done and update on SSW since August 2019 and your system already has WGET, any further upgrade can be made by directly following the steps underlined here. For Linux and MacOS you can check if you already have WGET by typing the command "which wget" in the bash shell.

If your system was not updated since August 2019, follow the steps below:

MacOS

1. Installing wget

USING HOMEBREW

To install homebrew, type the following command in the bash shell: 

/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

Once homebrew is installed, you can simply install wget by using the following command: 

brew install wget

USING MacPorts

Alternatively, wget can also be installed using MacPorts. Directions to install MacPorts for specific OS versions are given here
