The GS110MX since it is Unmanaged does not have any Firmware available, Therefore not upgradeable.

For more information please see the Product Data Sheet.

Welcome to the Community!
The GS110MX is an Unmanaged switch, Unmanaged switches doen't have any management GUI and IP address. The IPs you might be seeing on your router can be other devices connected on the router or on the switch.
The GS110TPv2 is a smart switch, this one has web management GUI and will obtain an IP address when connected to a router. I would suggest getting the GS110MX replaced by this model if you just bought it from an authorized reseller.
