I can't get the firmwear to update at all. I've contacted D-link...
useless.
I don't know if the firmwear upgrades are noncumulative, and therefore the
reason it won't work is that I've missed one, but whenever I download and
then try and install the files it all goes Pete Tong. I follow the
instructions as stated in their pdf document. Using the Update Gateway
screen, I browse to select the firmwear upgrade file - I think it's the
non-kernel one first, although I can't remember the correct way round for
the two files. Having located this and made sure that the correct path is
in the box onscreen, I click Install, or whatever the button is. I then get
the message about how it's doing its thing, down at the bottom of the
screen. After a while I get the 'The Page Cannot be Displayed Screen' pop
up. That's it, from that point, everything's broken. I can't log into the
management inteface on 192.168 et etc. I can't access the router, the
internet, nothing. I have to reset the router, mannualy, to factory
settings using its button, then reconfigure all my connections from scratch,
before I can get any access back. After all this, nothing's been updated.
D-link said it would be my firewall, or the like, blocking the script, but
I've turned off all antivirus and firewall software on my pc, and it still
happens. Anyone else had any trouble with firmwear upgrades? Thanks.
