BEFSR81 Firmware Upgrade Gone Bad?

Just putchased a new BEFSR81 router.  Using the installation CD, I got it Setup and works very well.  Then, I went to the support of Linksys and found page a more recent version of the firmware.  My version is 2.51.4.  I downloaded the 2.51.4.6 version and installed. I made sure to choose the version for my model 3.1. He appeared to install OK, because I got the message that it was for the page in 5 seconds.  Now I can't go to the web-based configuration page.  I can ping 192.168.1.1 and get a normal response, but by entering that address in my browser just times out.  I turned off the router and even held the reset for 30 seconds, but don't can't go in the web-based configuration page.

This router is now watered?  Do I need to send it back?

Thanks for any help on this.

  • BDX4350KB Wifi adapter and firmware upgrade doesn't work do not

    It is a sequel to my earlier question about if the WLM-20U2 Wifi adapter will work in my blu - ray player.

    After buying the adapter I plugged it and a message 'not supported', if I tried to connect wireless it says there was no an adapter connected.

    So I assumed that this necessary upgrade, so I formatted a 1 Gb USB drive with the FAT file system, downloaded the file level (version 39 http://www.dl.toshiba.com/player/NA/GB/EN/BDX4350KB.html) and copied the file .bin on the USB.

    When I plugged into the player and said to check the disk for a file to update it tells me that "frontend file is not found"... There was only one file to download, and it wasn't in a folder so I guess I'm supposed to just copy that file on the USB drive.

    I checked the USB port with a memory stick with photos on and it works fine.

    How to get the upgrade to work in the hope that it will enable the wifi adapter to work?

    Thank you

  • 200 d IOmega IX4 Firmware upgrade failure

    Hello

    I have an IX4 - 200 d which I inherited. Initially, it wouldn't boot and display only the symbols of USB stick/network after about 60 seconds.

    With some searching on Google, I created a boot disk USB with the firmware updated on this issue. All goes well until the Firmware upgrade begins. I go to the step of (what I assume is) the upgrade of the firmware and it gets 75%, hold for 5 seconds and then the machine stops.

    I tried to repeat the update of the firmware with all the drives present, with every other drive in the first slot and with all the disconnected drives. But it seems to behave in the same way.

    Is this a known issue? Or could it be a hardware failure?

    I'm pretty eager to find a solution - it takes a long time for me to accept defeat.

    The only other suggestion that suggested Dr. Google is to start linux and reformat the hard drive?

    Any help is appreciated.

    Kind regards

    Pete

    Hi André,.

    This case can be closed.

    After the above mentioned procedure eventually work, I didn't know that - ALL readers should be present and formatted during an attempt of USB firmware update / install.

    The link again on the forum - http://forum.nas-central.org/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=4401

    This seems to be the only solution.

    Kind regards

  • Jump and mix tracks after firmware upgrade?

    I can't explain it. Since the latest firmware upgrade Fuze my wife started jumping titles (for example jump to the next song to halfway through the current), but a funniest part - he mixes parts of files. We can listen to a song, and then all of a sudden he would be interrupted by 1 second of a file from a different album and then come back to play the first song from the point it was interrupted. What gives?

    Me that was too much.  I downloaded all my music back and reset my Fuze and reformatted it.

    Charge of excessive songs and back on went.

  • BEFW11S4 v.4 and Vista - firmware upgrade failure

    Hello

    I've had this router for about 5 years, it runs with XP without any problem. Since I got a new laptop with Vista, the wireless connects for an hour or two, and then falls back and I have to unplug the router for five seconds, then reconnect to reconnect (my other laptop with XP has not this problem).

    I understand that there is compatibility between the BEFW11S4 v. 4 and Vista problems so I tried to update the firmware of dartybox.com and kept getting a message that failed. I hard rebooted the router but button of restart 30 seconds and the upgrade has always failed. I so re-set to factory settings through the online admin to the router, re-uploaded the implementation level and still got the emssage failed (I am sure that the model number & version is correct and I download the appropriate firmware upgrade).

    Is there anything else I can do another one) buy a new router; (b) living with school drop-outs; (c) remove Vista and go back to XP?

    Thank you

    Bigdank

    Genius! I have changed the name of code.bin, went to the admin > tab upgrade firmware and the upgrade file. I had a wireless without interruption ever since, even after the awakening of the laptop to sleep.

    Thanks for your help

  • The Linksys BEFSR41 V2 Firmware upgrade help

    I can't open the MacBinary (.bin) files that I downloaded from linksys, in order to update my firmware. I used my utility to archive, Stuffit Expander Mac and BetterZip, and so far none of them opens the file. Anyone have the firmware upgrade in a different format or advice on how to solve my problem.

    Do not touch the file you downloaded. The only software that uses it is your browser.

    You must open the web interface of the router at http://192.168.1.1/ and then use the upgrade of the firmware here.

    I don't know if the demo user interface is always up to date, but if it is as you should find it on the help page. See here. Click Update Firmware. Then, press the Browse button and select the .bin file that you downloaded. Then press upgrade and the browser will download the file on the router.

  • WRT 160NL firmware upgrade ever end!

    Hello

    I am trying to upgrade the firmware version 1.00.01 B15 to 1.00.01 17 (the only one available on the linksys Web site). It is not allowed to turn it off or reset it. However, the upgrade progress stopped at 98% and never ending so far. Should I wait longer (another day)? Or I can just reset/power off of the it?

    Attached is a snapshot of the screen for reference.

    Thank you.

    The firmware upgrade process must be complete...

    Try the following steps... Press and hold the button of reset for 60 seconds... Release the reset button and unplug
    the power cable from your router, after only 30 seconds reconnect the power cable...

    Now, as do the settings of the browser on the computer... Open an IE, click Tools > Internet Options, and then delete all files, cookies, history, forms... GoTo 'Connections', make sure never Dial
    a connection is checked, click on network settings and make sure that all the options are unchecked... Once you are finished, click OK... Close IE and reopen...

    Now, try to upgrade your router firmware... it should work!

  • After restart of the firmware upgrade

    Hi, I need to update the firmware on my controllers PS6100 EqualLogic.

    I found the instructions on how to do it and everything seems straight forward to do so via the GUI.

    I noticed there is a necessary restart after the firmware has been applied. Does this mean I have to gracefully shutdown the virtual machines running on my SAN LUNS? My iSCSI connections will be closed/broken during the restart of the post firmware upgrade?

    Thank you, Oliver.

    Hello Oliver,.

    In the same area download notes firmware and release is another PDF, entitled ' iSCSI initiator and optimize your SAN environment for high availability operating system considerations ", which includes some key parameters that will allow your computers virtual and servers through the failover time.  It is important that not only the Firmware update, but in the case of an unexpected failure due to a failure of CM.

    More if you use VMware ESXi, there is a best practices PDF for that as well.  In addition to better manage the failover, these changes have shown to improve performance as well.

    The Tech report TR1091 is available here:

    http://en.community.Dell.com/TechCenter/Extras/m/white_papers/20434601/download

    Changes for Windows and the knots of ESXi virtual machines will require a reboot to take effect.

    What version of firmware you are at, and what version you are migrating towards?

    Other things I always propose updates is to ensure that both controllers are plugged in your switch and in the VLAN correct.  Since assets CM are failed over to the passive, support gets much advertising is unable to access the storage after firmware update.  Or ports of the day before were not in the VLAN correct, or individuals with disabilities, etc...

    It is for these reasons that personally I prefer to do the updates via the serial port CLI.   The process is more talkative, and if something should go wrong, you need the serial port of some sort.   Since the installation and tested in advance is a huge time saver.   Here, we use serial mux so that all array controllers are easily accessible.

    Kind regards

  • SGE2010 - Firmware upgrade and config does not save

    Hi all

    I have a few questions, but ill start with what im trying to achieve.

    With the help of the EMS 2010 for Microsoft NAP with 802.1 x auth for access to the switch, which has led to some questions

    What I have: an EMS 2010 48 port switch firmware 3.0.0.17

    Firmware update: to ensure im not having not problems due to the old firmware, I tried to upgrade using ros_ls1_bp_ge_bx - 3020.ros to 3.0.2, by downloading the file through TFTP, the transfer is complete and that's all, nothing happens.

    Restarting the device: as part of the upgrade process, I thought I might restart, so I rebooted and found that all my settings were cleaned, as if a reset occurred... and add further pain, the backup of the settings I had taken do not appear to introduce themselves with a new request.

    NAP support: so I tested my server NPS (RADIUS) with NTRadping.exe and everything is good, however I can't the SGE2010 to talk to it... the authenticator State in the web interface is still listed as initializing... I'm not sure if it is a simple mismatch (where the attempt of a firmware upgrade), a tag that should be on the side of RADIUS or switch misconfig.

    So, in summary:

    (1) how the hell you upgrade the firmware?

    (2) why are none of my saved settings to restart the device?

    (3) if anyone one of them puts up with PAN and has all wisdom of bone beads, let me know.

    Hi Ben, once you update the firmware, you need to go to the active image, apply the second image. Restart the unit. Regarding the configuration of switch, you must save the configuration running at startup configuration

    Admin-> file management-> copy files (running at startup)

  • ERRO 'bad gateway entered' after firmware upgrade BEFSR41

    I have updated the firmware on my router Linksys BEFSR41 V4.3. On this router I used Statis IP (if DHCP active). It worked well on my network, until this upgrade. Now when I try to ad another static IP address, or when I want to change something in the Routing tab, I get this message " bad gateway entry! It should be the same WAN IP subnet "." Strange because I have not changed anything in the settings.
    I did a full reset on the router, still the same problem.

    Any suggestions?

    Enable the DHCP server on the BEF. That's all. There is no need of any static routes in this configuration.

    If you enable the DHCP server, either change these static IP 192.168.1.100 etc. for addresses outside the server DHCP address pool (default 192.168.1.100 - 149) or adjust the DHCP server address pool, for example to change IP address of 192.168.1.100 DHCP start 192.168.1.10 or 192.168.1.200 or whatever you want. The important thing is that static IP addresses are not inside the DHCP server address pool.

  • Update of firmware for Camileo H10 gone bad

    Hello
    I got a Camileo H10 camera and wanted to do the firmware update, but something was wrong, I can't say what exactly.
    But now the camera doesn't even start. The only thing I see is the little red light at the front. But the monitor won't start... What is there that I can do, like reset, or something? Or is he now ready for the garbage? Would be a shame...

    Hello

    I m not a Camileo H10 owner but have you tried to remove the battery? Remove it and wait an hour. Now, reconnect the battery and try it. Maybe it works.

    If this isn't the case, I'd go for the authorized service provider nearest. Technicians can check the camera and fix it.

    Good luck!

  • Wmb54g doesn't work after firmware upgrade?

    I have a wmb54g wireless music bridge. I just upgraded my Gigabit Wireless-N router. (WRT310N) My bridge worked OK, so I've updated the firmware this morning. Since then, my network will not recognize the WMB54G. I have reset the unit several times and spent 2 hours chatting online with Linksys. It still does not.

    I uninstalled the software bridge. I hung the bridge directly to my router, but still not my network will not see it.

    I tried to access the bridge directly by 192.168.1.210, cannot do?

    Update: bad news, cannot ping bridge when it is connected directly to the router. Linksys will send a replacement WMB.

  • What 3115cn error code 117-363 average after a firmware upgrade failure?

    Hello

    I just got a replacement 3115cn after the former we failed in the warranty. I noticed that the firmware was old so just tried to update using the USB port and the printer is now saying to call assistance with error code 117-363. No power glitches or a bad power / data cables etc. He copied through the fine then just failed to complete startup after reboot.

    The only relevant fact that I can think is that the MPC had the latest firmware above as it has been transplanted across from the old, but the base firmware was older than the protocols supported in the CPC. That's why I tried to upgrade in the first place, I had lost a bunch of new features only have the old version of the installed base.

    I'll be the appellant first thing, but I wanted to ask if anyone knew in advance. (It would be a great help if each error code was listed on the web site of Dell, so I could get myself.)

    Kind regards
