firmware is damaged on befsr41 ver 4.3

Tried to upgrade the BEFSR41 firmware and it did not. Now I can not access the router at all. Fttp.exe I tried without success. It says "cannot find server". My router is a paper weight now?  Windows 7 64-bit. How can I fix the firmware if I can't access the router? The power light blinks all the time.  Thank you, seperic

The router power light blinks, it seems that the router is brick. Try this link to unbrick the router and check if that helps.

You can set any open DNS, if you want to give the static DNS. For example 4.2.2.2 and 4.2.2.3

  • BEFSR41 Ver 3 connection to the modem Motorola 2210 problem

    I have a simple (I hope) home office network configuration.  I have a router Linksys BEFSR41 Ver 3, a Vonage phone device, a couple of computers and printers all hooked into the router.  The problem appeared when my old modem is dead.  I replaced the old modem with the Motorola 2210 (from AT & T) and configure the modem, so now the internet works if I plug the line directly into my computer.  When I try to run it through the Linksys router, the signal comes through.  I've turned off and rebooted twice and the second time I did it in a particular order, but still no signal through the router.

    I see that the IP address of the router is 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.254 is the modem.  It seems that something needs to be reset somewhere, but since I'm no computer, I don't know what to reset where...  I read the other posts and they speak to reset a PPPoE on the BEF, but where do you do that?  And is there something different about my router 3 worm?    Any help is appreciated... I'm pretty frustrated and miss me phone calls from my device Vonage is not connected...

    Thank you very much in advance...

    You the problem is that you try to use the same subnet 192.168.1.x into the WAN (Internet) port and the LAN of your BEFSR41 ports.  You can't do that.

    Your modem is apparently made your PPPoE connection for you.  So you should NOT repeat this PPPoE connection in the BEFSR41.

    Setting network, follow these steps:

    (1) put your entire network.

    (2) disconnect all other devices BEFSR41.

    (3) connect your computer to one of the four ports LAN on the BEFSR41.

    (4) turn on the BEFSR41 and your computer.

    (5) point your browser to 192.168.1.1 and connect to your BEFSR41.

    (6) change the "Internet Connection Type" to «DHCP - auto»

    (7) change "local IP address" 192.168.2.1

    8) click the 'Save Settings' button, and then wait the screen refresh (3-60 seconds).  You will be disconnected from the BEFSR41.  Don't worry about this.

    (9) turn off the BEFSR41 and your computer.

    (10) wire the ethernet port of your modem to the Internet (WAN) on the BEFSR41 port.  Leave your computer connected to the BEFSR41.

    (11) power of your network.  It should work.

    BEFSR41 using you now on its LAN ports 192.168.2.x subnet.  You can now connect to the BEFSR41 facility to 192.168.2.1

  • BEFSR41 ver 2 (three on the beautiful work of Ports)

    A worm BEFSR41 2.

    Background: had the router for years.  Served 3 pcs (2 OS from windows and 1 mac OS), and a PS2, faithfully for 5-7 years.  A true friend of the family. No problems until recently. Remained current on all updates, have no problems.

    Recent issue: one of the windows PC (master unit ensuring the router connect to the page) recently acquired disgust/disabilities, sending attachments in outgoing emails.  It wasn't a problem for many years.  Only recently.  This same pc had increasing problems of loading web pages.  Note the other PC, mac and ps2 had NO problems during this period.

    I double checked the firmware and it crosses a dozen times or more with Windows updates monthly Malware Removal and RemoveIT PRO and AVG, Avira and SpybotS & D and BlackIce Hijack this, Vundo Rootkits, AirDusters and the works. Check that any security downloads with an MD5 checksum utility. Infrared analytical lighting memory running in a steralized room.  Got my lawyer and my tax accountant involved in case there was something had to be done to this end. A homeland security on alert 5000mAh.

    Everything was up to date. Has begun to suspect that it was an old windows update, which was causing the problem. Tinkered a little.

    After several months of trying to solve the problem, decided to install the window on this pc the scrap and start over.  At that animate the pc turned off and in a sterile room for cleaning, removed the BONES and the defragmentated.  Hit in the back and made the installation.  Put just the major updates on the operating system to make the XP up to SP2.  Put online and fear once again, the thing was still slow and haunted by slow down navigation while the other PC on the router where you have NO problem (but it made me wonder why the other computers and ps2 did not have a problem).

    Then had the idea to change the port of the router. Swapped the port from a pc having problems and gave to this port to a pc not having NOT the question.  Was given the pc having issues, the port of a pc, that was NOT the question before.  And violo.  The pc with the problem is now resolved, while the pc having is not the question before, is now seen the question.

    My question is (and I guess it is answered already but I like confirmation):

    When a router goes wrong, he's going poorly a port at a time, or all at the same time?  2nd question: is it possible that a bug in the matrix has set itself at this port and set up a trap to trap all things out of this port, and will get an invitation soon to follow rabbits or tattoo-girls or rather hot babes looking with a cropped bangs and too much red lipstick?

    Alternative 3 question: If a matrix like bug has himself affixed to this port and set up a trap to capture all things out of this port, can I set up a trap hand to trap the trap, or otherwise get rid of it?

    Thanks in advance for any response.

    It is follow-up:

    We ended up having to replace the router.  We used the other ports for three or four weeks, then a second port went bad and a third party. We have replaced sometime in December of the same year, went to version 4.3 of the same number of model above.  Works fine again.  All ports.

    Anyone, know why, the prior model (ver 2) went bad as he did?  I noticed with the new unit, the MAC address is outside of the box, with the bar coding. I think that, for security reasons, this information should be on the unit itself and not on the outside of the box, at the time of departure.

  • About speed BEFSR41 ver. 2

    Hi all

    My ISP (Cox) has improved my 12.5Mbps/2.5Mbps service and I noticed recently I get only 6-7Mbps / 1.5 Mbps, max.

    When I bypass my BEFSR41 and go directly from my modem cable in my main computer, I can get up to 18Mbps, constantly. I have not found a tweak of configuration in the router so that it can come close to that speed when using it. Also tried different cables, unplugging everything except the main system, etc.

    I read here and there that (some?) Older BEFSR41s (like my ver. 2) is not much higher than 5 Mbps or more because of the limitations of the technology when they were built. Mine is probably 6-7 years and it seems to fit the behavior I see.

    Is there a solution to upgrade firmware for this, or what I have to buy just a newer model?

    Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

    V4.0 and has the interface WAN 10/100 Mbit / s. personally, I have version 4.0 of this router. I also have the internet Charter cable. I am on the plan of 16 MB / 2 MB. I have full power using the router. I have also a Linksys CM100 cable modem bought not for long. You guys just need to update your routers because they are really old and Linksys has updated to newer versions.

  • can I use firmware on my router to ver ver.2. 1 wrt610n

    Can I use it for my wrt router worm. 1

    The important thing is that you select the correct hardware of your router version. If you have a WRT610Nv1 (aka it shows only "WRT610N" on the label on the bottom), then you must select v1.

    The firmware version is independent of the hardware version. The hardware version defines version of the material as they sometimes change the material within a model.

    The version of the firmware sets the version number of the software running on the router. In your case the Ver.2.00.00.05 is the latest for your WRT610Nv1.

    (In fact, it seems as if the material of the WRT610Nv1 and the WRT610Nv2 uses the same firmware, that is, even if the hardware has changed slightly they can both use the same firmware.) But of course always select the v1 on the support page to ensure that you get the right firmware...)

  • utility based on the Web shows again the old version of the firmware - HELP PLEASE

    In September of last year, I replaced my old Linksys with a new (BEFSR41 ver 4.3).  I started to get in trouble yesterday, so I consulted the web-based utility and noticed that the window says: the firmware 2.0 version!

    I tried to update to the latest firmware available for my model, following the instructions on the site but something went wrong and the firmware has been altered. Finally, I managed to update the firmware via tftp utility, and he said that the upgrade has gone through. But the utility still shows the version of the firmware 2.0.  Under the router > status reads as follows:

    Capture (share.field_33_UI_share) Firmware Version: 2.00.4 build 7, January 20, 2010

    I am very confused. Which is the latest firmware or I get it confused with the 4.3 version number?

    I really hesitate to update the firmware again after the problems I had the first time.  If anyone can give me some advice on what to do, I would really appreciate it.

    You confuse the hardware version of the router with the version of the firmware.

    The BEFSR41 is the model. One physical versions of this model. Each version contains a different material. The exact hardware version is printed on the label under the router.

    The firmware version is the version of the firmware (software) running on the router. It is important that the firmware used is compatible with the hardware version of the router. For this reason, you must select the correct hardware on the router Linksys support download site version to be sure to choose the right firmware compatible with your router.

    The latest version of the firmware of the BEFSR41 v4.3 is Ver.2.00.4 Build 7. You have the latest firmware.

  • BEFSR41 wired router affected by change of modem cable

    Hi all

    You don't know if someone here can help me with a problem with the router above following a change of modem, I can get things to work, but once everything is turned off, the next time it starts things are back to how they were.

    To give a bit of history...

    My setup is a G4 Mac and a Xbox 360 Elite connected to a wired router BEFSR41, which in turn is connected to my cable modem, I am based in the United Kingdom so my ISP is Virgin Media.

    This configuration has been absolutely rock solid for more than 3 years, but last Sunday, I was unable to connect to internet and I noticed that the light on the modem was flashing instead of be constant, as it is supposed to be.

    I called Virgin and they did a test signal and confirm there is a problem and sent an engineer. He arrived Tuesday and confirmed the modem was very old and had packed and replaced by a new. We rebooted everything and everything was fine, I could email and get out on the internet as before.

    It worked fine the next day too but on Thursday morning, despite the fire loan being constant on the modem, I couldn't online again. I called Virgin and they did another test signal and said that something did not look right and they would send another engineer.

    He came Friday (different GUY), but confirmed that there is nothing wrong with the modem, the signal is OK just to verify, plugged the Mac directly into the modem, bypassing the router and I could get on the internet without problem.

    It seems that the router is at fault, but I have to say that it is a massive coincidence that it has stopped working correctly two days after the modem has been change, so I was looking at the configuration of the router via my browser page, and the only thing I did was to confirm under Type of Internet connection that "automatically an IP address to get" has been selected and I saved the settings and bingo everything works well again.

    So I put off, Mac, router and modem and switched back them and I'm at square one, no internet access. If I go to the router setup page again, "get automatically an IP address' is still selected and if I hit again 'save settings' everything works fine.

    I then started to bounce back each element separately and by turning the router or the mac on / off does not affect access, I am still able to get on the net, but as soon as I bounce the modem, I'm in the place again until I have click on 'save' on the router set up page.

    It's just my head in - what is the modem to the router to make it 'lose' its parameters and specifically, how to fix?

    I must say I don't remember when I bought the router through any complex installation, it is basically out of the box, go hooked upward and worked for 3 years and more.

    Any suggestions would be very welcome.

    Nick

    As far as I know, it seems that you have a cable modem.

    Your BEFSR41 should work with your modem when the BEFSR41 has been reset by default.  In addition, in some cases, you may need to 'clone' of the MAC address of the computer (the one that works when you connect it to the modem) in your BEFSR41.

    To reset your router by default, follow these steps:

    (1) turn off all computers, the router and the modem and disconnect from the wall.
    (2) disconnect all the wires of the router.
    (3) turn on the router and let it start up completely (1-2 minutes).
    (4) press in and hold the reset for 30 seconds button, then release it, then let the router reset and restart (2-3 minutes).
    (5) turn the router.
    (6) connect a computer cable to port 1 of the router (NOT to the internet port).
    (7) turn on the router and let it start up completely (1-2 minutes).
    (8) the power of the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it's off).
    (9) try ping on the router. To do this, click the 'Start' button > all programs > Accessories > command prompt. A black DOS window will appear. Enter the following text: "ping 192.168.1.1" (without the quotes) and press the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that begin with ' response to... ". "or"Request timed out". If you see "reply from...". ", your computer has found your router.
    (10) open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to the login page of your router. Let the empty user name (Note: some routers have a username "admin") and in the password field, enter "admin" (without the quotes). This will take you to your router configuration page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually found near upper right corner of the screen).

    (11) If you need to clone the MAC address of your computer, do this step now.

    (12) If you get this far without problems, quit your browser and put your entire network.  Then, using an ethernet cable, connect the ethernet port of your modem to the Internet port on the BEFSR41.  Leave your computer connected to a LAN of the BEFSR41 ports.  If your modem has a USB port, do not connect anything to it.  If your modem works with a battery, remove it now, and then wait one minute, then replace the battery.  Turn on your modem and let it start up completely (1-5 minutes).  Turn on your BEFSR41 and let it start up completely (1-2 minutes).  Turn on your computer.  Try to connect to the Internet.  If you have a problem, temporarily disable your firewall software computer and try again to connect.  If you still have problems, see 'The replacement boot order' below.

    If you can not ' response to... ". "in step 9 above, your router is probably dead. A report with this problem

    If you get a response in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, is that your router is dead or the firmware is damaged. Related to this issue.

    If you need additional help, please give the results of steps 9 and 10. In addition, if you receive error messages, copy them exactly, and report.

    Please let me know how things turn out for you.

    Changing the boot order *.

    The boot order (modem, router, then computer) that I mentioned above is the classic boot order, and it works with most of the networks.  Some networks will work well if you turn on all devices at the same time.  However, the other networks is very picky about the way in which they are started, and they may also require a different boot order.  Sometimes, it can require a lot of experimenting until you find the boot order that works.  For example, I had once a system requiring that I start the router first, wait 5 minutes, and then start the modem and the computer.  Try different orders on your system until you find what works.

    If your favorite firmware update is available, then you would be able to downgrade it.

    Hello
    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A10, which was flashed with wrong firmware (I don't know which because I don't).

    I tried flashing with the right firmware (1315) but get the message to the Primary Master and Slave as "Not ATAPI Device" and "drive not connected".

    NB: at the start, even with the deleted DVD ROM, I always get the #1 error IDE.

    Update the bios to the latest version would help or is there all the options open for me to solve this problem other than to have recourse to the connection of pin 47 & 45? Would it even solves?

    Thanks in advance for any advice you can give.

    Best regards

    > I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A10, which was flashed with wrong firmware (I don't know which because I don't).

    Lol :D I have don t wonder you get the IDE #1 error message.
    As you say yourself, you have flashed the drive with the wrong firmware. This has damaged the master/slave/c-salt settings of readers and so the BIOS doesn't recognize the CD/DVD drive. But I wonder why someone flashing the drive with a bad firmware?  :| We still know that a wrong firmware can damage the CD/DVD drive... and above all it is not necessary to update the firmware.

    > Update the bios to the latest version would help
    The BISO update will not help you because you have already good BIOS and it s NOT a problem of BIOS, but the evil and not compatible firmware is stored.

    > or are there options open for me to solve this problem other than to have recourse to the connection of pin 47 & 45? Would it even solves?
    I'm don't know if this helps, but I know that it is not desirable because it may damage the material of CD/DVD players

    I recommend you contact the ASP in your country guys might revive the CD/DVD drive. Let's hope

  • How to connect the worm 4.3 BEFSR41 router to a modem that is always on

    Hi I have a westell modem ATT DSL, it is a new modem, I had one that force me to use PPPoe on my BEFSR41 ver 4.3 router Linksys, I wonder how I have now reconfigure the. He didn't need me use PPPoe because she is always on when it is connected directly to my PC I have 4 video game systems that use static IP that are transmitted through my router and 3 PC windows port & printer using other my network products are by linksys NAS200, BEFSR41, WAP54G and 2 group network 5 & 8-port switches , I lost my CD of AP wireless how do I do that I reconfigure without the CD. Please answer as soon as possible

    That you no longer use the PPPoE settings on the router... On the Configuration tab, select "Obtain an IP automatically" under Internet Connection Type and click on save settings... Now, click the status tab and check the IP address. If the IP 192.168.1.x is then, click the Configuration tab and change address router ip 192.168.2.1 and click on save settings. Now, power cycle the entire network and check your internet connection to computers connected to the router.

    Now for the other devices like WAP54G or computers (for which you have opened the ports on the router), you must assign the static IP address in the range of IP (i.e. 192.168.2.x) of the router.

  • V4.3 BEFSR41 router

    Hello, for the past few weeks I have been having some very slow performance with this router, web pages load and play games online... I decided to update to firmware: FW_BEFSR41v4.3_2.00.4.5_20080603_code

    The firmware has been upgraded, the router appear to be sentenced to a fine, but now I can't connect to internet or router (when I access its IP address)... anyword on this? back in every possible way I can back this firmware? I already did a reset master back to the factory setting and turn off the power on the router and not luck...

    You should try to reset the router by default.

    To reset your router by default, follow these steps:

    (1) turn off all computers, the router and the modem and disconnect from the wall.
    (2) disconnect all the wires of the router.
    (3) turn on the router and let it start up completely (1-2 minutes).
    (4) press in and hold the reset for 30 seconds button, then release it, then let the router reset and restart (2-3 minutes).
    (5) turn the router.
    (6) connect a computer cable to port 1 of the router (NOT to the internet port).
    (7) turn on the router and let it start up completely (1-2 minutes).
    (8) the power of the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it's off).
    (9) try ping on the router. To do this, click the 'Start' button > all programs > Accessories > command prompt. A black DOS window will appear. Enter the following text: "ping 192.168.1.1" (without the quotes) and press the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that begin with ' response to... ". "or"Request timed out". If you see "reply from...". ", your computer has found your router.
    (10) open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to the login page of your router. Leave the user name blank and in the password field, enter "admin" (without the quotes). This will take you to your router configuration page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually found near upper right corner of the screen). Exit your browser.

    If you get this day without problem, try the Setup disk (or configure the router manually, if you prefer) and see if you can get your work and router configuration.

    If you can not ' response to... ". "in step 9 above, your router is probably dead. A report with this problem

    If you get a response in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, is that your router is dead or the firmware is damaged. Related to this issue.

    If you need additional assistance, please indicate your ISP, the brand and model of your modem and the results of steps 9 and 10. In addition, if you receive error messages, copy them exactly, and report.

    Please let me know how things turn out for you.
