Linksys Wireless Router :: WRT160N Hangs - Restore Original Firmware In Case Update Fails?

Jun 16, 2008

I purchased a WRT160N router last Friday. After setting it up, everything seemed to work fine, but after a couple of hours, the router stopped responding to any requests. The LEDs stayed on as if nothing had happened, but the router was dropping everything coming from both the WAN and a wired LAN interface. Since than, I had to restart it 3 times during the last 3 days.The firmware is 1.53.0, which seems to be the latest firmware for the European market - even when I try to get a newer firmware, this site only offers the US version 1.02.2.Should I update the firmware to the US version 1.02.2 ? Is there any difference between the 1.53.0 and the 1.02.2 version ? Is there a way to restore the original firmware in case the update fails ? I haven't found any link to 1.53.0 version..Also, does this firmware updating affect my warranty ?

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1000 FW - Firmware Update Failed / Router Hangs?

Mar 5, 2013

The router had firmware 2.0.x(?) and I tried to update to the latest FW, according to the webpage that's

FW_E1000_2.1.02.006_US_20130115.bin
 
Hardware is E1000 v2 according to sticker on back.The firmware update failed (no reason given) and the router now hangs in limbo where all it does is flashing the power LED.I set my PC to 19?2.168.1.2 and TFTP'd the firmware over to 192.168.1.1 - no errors reported and 192.168.1.1 is pingable. Held reset for 30s, then powered down the router for another 30s. On power-up the router still flashes the power LED.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Firmware Update On WRT160NL Fails At 98 Percent

Sep 23, 2009

Trying to update my firmware 1.00.01 B15 to 1.00.01 B17. I downloaded the firmware to my desktop (using mac os X 10.5.5) and connected my computer directly to port 1 on the back of the router. I used the Firmware upgrade tool under the Administration tab to upload the new firmware file. The update progress starts but fails at 98%

Linksys Wireless Router :: Wrt160n Lost Wifi Connectivity After Firmware Update

Dec 2, 2011

I updated the fimware on my WRT160N v3 and followed it up with a reset of the router.  I then restored the router settings that I had saved.  All the settings appeared to be good, but none of my wireless devices would connect.  I reneted the pass phrases (WPA2) but still nothing.  Tried to change the passphrase, still no good.  I then did a factory reset of the router from the setiings page and manually re-entered and save the settings, again nothing.  All of my devices are able to "see" the network and the correct SSID.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Wrt160n - Original Network SSID Had Been Changed?

Oct 8, 2009

I have a wrt160n router set up at a friends house that i would connect my windows xp laptor to when i would go there.  it always worked fine. i recently got a new laptop with vista 64 bit OS.  i went to my friends today and connected via wireless for the first time.  i expected to get prompted for the security key.  instead it asked for the pin #.  the pin number was something new i noticed when i replaced an older linksys with the new wrt160n so i had it in my notes.  i entered the pin number and connected to the wireless router.  but then my friend laptop could not connect and said it couldnt find the network.  when i viewed the available networks, i noticed that the original network SSID had been changed to my vista laptop's computer name.  i had to physically connect my laptop to the router and reconfigure the settings of the wireless network. then my friend was able to see the available network and automatically connect..

Linksys Wireless Router :: Want EA3500 Original Firmware

Jun 28, 2012

If someone has the original firmware for the EA3500 to copy. I need to downgrade my router after Cisco sabotaged it with their Cloud Connect. This will be the firmware you have right out of the box. Be sure you go into the Admin. section and Save a Copy before you ever connect to the Internet. Also Uncheck the Auto Updates box or you will be fed the Cloud Connect (and its amazing Terms Of Service).

Linksys Wireless Router :: Original Firmware For WRT54GL Version 1.1?

May 30, 2007

It appears that there is no firmware I can download for my WRT54GL Version 1.1. While it may never have been updated from what the router came with from the factory, it would still be useful to have it available. In my case, I would like to revert the router from the DD-WRT firmware to factory specs.

D-Link DIR-825 :: Update Firmware From Web Fails?

Apr 24, 2011

I bought my DIR-825 three months ago. The firmware seem to be from 2009, and the check-for-later-firmware functionality from the web interface tells me that my version (Current Firmware Version :   2.01EU) is the latest.

I don't believe that the firmware from 2009 is the latest, but have no idea on how to proceed.

My hardware in the web interface say this: (Hardware Version: B1     Firmware Version: 2.01E

The problem I really have is related to PPTP pass through (I think), but I thought making sure I have the latest firmware is always a smart move.

So, can the firmware-checker of the web-interface fail, or do I have the latest firmware?

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 - Restore Previous Version Of Firmware?

Dec 27, 2012

I have an E4200 router with 3 WET610N access points.  I did the firmware update on the E4200 router about 2 weeks ago so my son could use his xbox when he got home after 4 months of being away.  Everything seemed to work OK as far as I could tell....but when he went to sign into xbox live and watch Netflix, it will load to 98% and stop.  A friend of his came over with the new Slim xbox 360 with built in wireless and it will connect fine on its own, if we hook up one of the 610N's to it, it will load to 98% on Netflix and stop again with error code R8152.  Both of my older xbox's will hook up and play on xbox live, just not work with Netflix.

I also noticed, it shows the WET610N as a hard wire on xbox and will not search for any wireless networks, I have 2.  The newer Slim xbox360 will search out both networks on its own if you allow it to use its internal wireless.  This only happened since the firmware update.  And this equipment was working fine before this.  Is there a way I can restore the previous version of firmware?

Cisco Routers :: RV220W Firmware Update Fails?

Sep 4, 2011

I've previously upgraded the firmware on our RV220W from 1.0.0.26 to 1.0.1.0 without any problems but all attempts to upgrade to the latest version 1.0.2.4 fails with the following message "Upgrade failed due to invalid/corrupted firmware". The router then automatically reboots with the current firmware.
 
We've already tried re-downloading and applying the update from several different machines using different operating systems and browsers without success. How to apply this firmware version successfully? We really need one of the VLAN fixes included in this latest version!

Cisco Routers :: RV042 Firmware-update Fails

Nov 17, 2011

i got the RV042 and want to update the fw to 4.04.xx . After a few minutes, the browser wanted to perform the update again. I agreed and now, the webinterface isnt available and i cant get a IP from the router. So I tried to reset the router twice. After no success, I performed a factory-reset, which should work when I pressed the reset-button at least for 30 sec.Now the DIAG-LED blinks in a ~5sec rythm.What can I do?

Linksys Wireless Router :: Upgrade WRT160n To Firmware V3.0.03?

Jul 31, 2011

I had issues with my router incorrectly resolving URLs. For example, going to facebook.com would gtive me a "wiki does not exist" message. Pinging facebook.com would give me an IP that belongs to wikipedia. The answer was SUPPOSED to be upgrading to v3.0.03.I upgraded and now my router WILL NOT connect to my DSL modem. Oh, it says it's connected and shows the correct IP address for my DSL modem but the gateway is showing 0.0.0.0. Direct connection to my PC works just fine.I have cycled the power on both the router and the DSL modem several times. The DSL modem is working just fine. I have done several IP release/renew on the router. I have reset the router. To no avail. This firmware update (which completed successfully) seems to have killed my routers ability to communitcate with the internet.

Linksys Wireless Router :: Firmware Version For WRT160N?

Jan 25, 2013

Looking into a firmware upgrade. I have a WRT160N. The label on the back, next to Model Number, simply says WRT160N with no version number. I therefore conclude, per info on the Cisco site, that it is a V1 model, not V2 or V3. And yet the Admin web page for the router says firmware version is 3.0.02. I'm pretty confident I have never upgraded firmware on this router, which means this is how it came out of the box long ago. Latest firmware for V1 is 1.02.11; latest firmware for V3 is 3.0.03.
 
Should I upgrade to 3.0.03? Is there a way to downgrade to 1.02.11? I'm having some minor issues whch may or may not be the ruter's fault, I figure a firmware upgrade (downgrade?) will at least rule out router firmware issues.

Linksys Wireless Router :: E1200 Firmware Upgrade Fails?

Apr 13, 2012

I am trying to upgrade the firmware on my Linksys v1 router from 1.0.02 to 1.0.03 over a remote 56Kb circuit. I appear to be having a timeout problem.  The upgrade always fails.  I have upgraded several E1200s in my office over ethernet, and the upgrade appears to finish when the progress bar is at 15%.  However, on my remote upgrade, the progress bar gets to 98%, hangs for a few more seconds, and then pops up a window with "Upgrade failed".
 
I suspect that there is a timeout on the upgrade process, and that I can't upload the 3.8 MB firmware file fast enough.  If so, is there any way to increase the upgrade timeout?

Linksys Wireless Router :: What Is Latest Firmware Version For WRT160n

Jan 20, 2013

what is latest firmware version is for router WRT 160n (v1). The Linksys site currently states that it is Ver.1.02.11 (11/08/10). However, on the admin page for my actual router it states v1.52.0 Nov 16, 2007.  These versions #s and dates don't jive. How could I have a supposedly newer version that is older than the most recent one posted?

Linksys Wireless Router :: E4200 (firmware 1.0.03) Fails To Renew IP Address

Dec 1, 2011

After an indeterminate period my E4200 (firmware version 1.0.03) stops renewing the Internet IP address. This happens in both router mode and bridge mode.In router mode the E4200 is set for DHCP and connected to the cable modem, in bridge mode it is connected to a Dell switch  with DHCP being provided by my Win2008R2 server.It appears that the device stops recognizing the existence of the Internet port - no lights come on when a cable is plugged in - whether connected to the cable modem or my Dell switch. Plugging the same cable into one of the 4 lan ports and that port lights up immediately (i.e. it is not a patch cable problem).If the E4200 is left switched off for some time (possibly days) it will work properly again for a while.

Linksys Wireless Router :: EA6500 Won't Update Firmware?

Apr 4, 2013

an EA6500 router that has intermmitent connectivity issues.  Went into the configuration page and saw he was a couple versions behind on firmware.  Used the online update option, firmware downloaded and then indicated that router would reboot.  Did not power off router or leave the configuration web page.  Watched light go out on router and come back on, but the spinning wait icon never went away after 5 minutes.  Powered off and on and was back at the same point with the old firmware still.  Downloaded the firmware to local drive and applied from local file, but same results.  Waited 10 minutes this time.  Surely it doesn't take more than 10 minutes for the router to reboot itself from a firmware flash?
 
Gave up on trying to update firmware and configured wifi settings.  Left friend's house and then got a message about 15 minutes later that the router had locked up again.  If he pulls power for 2 minutes it will then work for another short period of time. 
 
Is there anything that can be done to try and restore normal operation to this particular router, or are these all signs of a hardware failure and the unit should just be replaced?
