Unless you're an expert, the only way to do it and keep all your configurations is from the dvd install. Boot and choose upgrade. You can only go online after the upgrade finishes. This really is a pity when you see Ubuntu with a one click upgrade with everything coming from Internet after each new release.
It is a major advantage to be able to install or upgrade every kind of software independent of the internet. In fact, it is a prerequisite for user control. For user control one cannot be dependent on the presence of external services or repositories in order to install on one's own system - the independence from net-based software subscriptions and services is the greatest advantage of Open Source and Linux.
