I hope you did not try to update your firmware wirelessly.  This is a definite no-no.  When you do a firmware upgrade, you must use a computer that is wired to the router.
Your router may already be dead.  But there is always some hope.
You need to try again to reset the router to factory defaults.
To reset your router to factory defaults, use the following procedure:
1) Power down all computers, the router, and the modem, and unplug them from the wall.
2) Disconnect all wires from the router.
3) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
4) Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds, then release it, then let the router reset and reboot (2-3 minutes).
5) Power down the router.
6) Connect one computer by wire to port 1 on the router (NOT to the internet port).
7) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
8) Power up the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it is off).
9) Try to ping the router. To do this, click the "Start" button > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. A black DOS box will appear. Enter the following: "ping 192.168.1.1" (no quotes), and hit the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that start either with "Reply from ... " 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 your router's login page. Leave the user name blank, and in the password field, enter "admin" (with no quotes). This will take you to your router setup page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually listed near upper right corner of screen). Exit your browser.
If you get this far without problems, try the setup disk (or setup the router manually, if you prefer), and see if you can get your router setup and working.
If you cannot get "Reply from ..." in step 9 above, your router is dead.
If you get a reply in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, then either your router is dead or the firmware is corrupt. In this case, use the Linksys tftp.exe program to try to reload your router with the latest firmware. After reloading the firmware, repeat the above procedure starting with step 1.
If you need additional help, please state your ISP, the make and model of your modem, your router's firmware version, and the results of steps 9 and 10. Also, if you get any error messages, copy them exactly and report back.
Please let me know how things turn out for you.

  • WRT110 Firmware Upgrade Crashed IE8, Router Does Not Work

    Last night, at 2:30am EST I felt the need to upgrade the firmware on my router.  I downloaded the latest firmware for the WRT110 v1.0 and attempted to upgrade the firmware. Close to the end of the firmware upgrade process IE8 crashed and left my router in a state of limbo.
    I called Linksys support only for them to tell me that I have 3 options (all which included paying money to them) :
    Pay $40 to add 6 months of extended warranty to the router and support for it
    Pay $30 for a one time support call
    Buy a new router through them with waived shipping.
    This wasn't exactly what I wanted to hear at 3 am, so naturally I was quite irritated.  Of course, the supervisor asking me if I was sure I downloaded the correct firmware and telling me to go on the internet when it's obviously not working really did not help either.
    I tried the two reset options suggested by the forums here and the supervisor on the phone, pressing down the reset button for 30 seconds and pressing it down for a minute and unplugging for 30 seconds.  Neither worked, so the supervisor essentially told me the router needed to be replaced.
    Now, is there any actual way of getting the router back to a working state?

    There is always a way. Check this topic and follow the procedures.

  • Firmware upgrade crash

    I've recently acquired my first BB, a Curve 9320 and when I linked it to the Desktop Software was enticed into carrying out a firmware upgrade from v7.1 bundle 1319 to v7.1 bundle 2039
    After automatically running another backup, the upgrade crashed and bricked the device, which has had to be replaced under warranty. The replacement has the original firmware version on it!
    Should I be tempted to try the upgrade again, or play it safe and keep what I've got?

    Hey Sawbones,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
    I would suggest doing the update from a PC using the BlackBerry® Desktop Software, let me know if you need any assistance.
    Thanks.

  • Firmware Upgrade Crashed! Now what?

    While attempting to upgrade my WRT54G wireless router (ver 1) firmware, the process crashed near the end -- leaving me back at my Windows desktop and with no access to my router.  I can't ping it, can't connect to the management console.... Nothing!
    Is there anyway to resurrect it?

  • Help..I updated my iphone4 to iOS to 7.1.1 from 6.1.3 at last stage of firmware upgrading throwing an error 16 and stuck in recovery mode.

    HIAll
    I waited so long not to update of my iphone4 to 7.x.x because of bugs and not much stable for iPhone4 and many reviews from friends saying phone is very slow and many bugs but after release of iOS 7.1.1 of many improvements for iphone4. I tried to update my iphone4 to 7.1.1 through iTunes at last stage of firmware upgrading its showing an error occurred error (16). I checked in internet error16 is purely hardware issue before my phone is very good condition in iOS6.1.3 no problem with my phone, But after upgrading to how it will be hardware issues. why Apple engineers are not testing properly their software’s before releasing great updates to customers now my phone is out of warranty and I can’t use it anymore just showing iTunes symbol and charger on the screen while on/off showing apple logo. From the past September there is no proper solution for error 16. Don’t know  what these people are doing about that error why apple is crashing customer phones by releasing useless update to phones what is the point of buying such a expensive phones don't know what to do with this phone. Tried many possible ways
    Tried: presing home+power button at 95% of  firmware update
              Disconnected battery and restored
              used DrPhone to restart
              tried to restore old version 7.x.x
              no luck.
              used new original cables
              restored with Macbook
              tried to restore in 3 Different computers and so many times but  no luck

    Hi, to get your iPhone  4 back to normal, here're two ways for you.
    1.  Use Dr.Fone for iOS. The free trial version can fix iPhone screen of death. The free trial version can do that, you don't have to pay.
    Just download and install this software on your computer and connect your iPhone 4 to computer with a USB cable. When it detects your iPhone 4 is abnormal, click Restart the device to get your iPhone 4 to be normal.
    2. Use iTunes to fix it.
    Step 1. Make sure that the latest iTunes is installed on your computer.
    Step 2. Plug into a USB cable to connect your iPhone4 to computer.
    Step 3. Press and hold the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time for about 10s.
    Step 4. 10 seconds later, release the sleep/wake button. But continue to hold the home button until a message comes out, saying "iTunes has discovered an iPhone 4 in recovery mode, you must restore this iPhone before it can be used with iTunes".
    Step 5. Click your iPhone 4 in the left sidebar to show the device control panel on the right. Then, click Summary.
    Step 6. Go to Backups section and click Restore Backup.... In the drop-down list, choose a backup file and restore to your iPhone 4

  • Driver help with adapter firmware upgrade

    I'm trying to upgarde the firmware for my Netgear WG511T adapter. After
    uninstalling the current firmware, the Netgear firmware upgrade
    installation requests the infamous 'Novell Netware DOS driver disk' -
    first thing it wants is "lsl.com" (not sure if I will need others).
    I've pointed the installer to the likely folders and searched the hard
    drive for the file, but no success.
    I have found a couple of Novell drivers files at:
    1) http://www.novell.com/coolsolutions/tools/13555.html
    reportedly useful for my situation
    and
    2) http://download.novell.com/SummaryFr...d=SUeAaKqKpQA~
    the latest (& last?) Novell Client v3.4 for Windows* 95/98
    My question is - Am I on the right track ? - thing is, probably
    obviously, that I (think?) I know just enough to be dangerous.
    I thought it would be a good idea to ask how I should proceed here, in
    this forum, after searching for help with this situation and only
    finding clues, as opposed to a clear solution.
    Thank you,
    MB

    Alright - just in case this comes-up in someone's search for advice on
    the same problem.
    Turns-out I did not really need any drivers - I saw a comment to that
    effect on another site in my search for tips.
    Anyway - anyone with the same problem should just 'cancel' the search
    for drivers and continue the installation of the firmware - mine
    installed after I cancelled the search for 'lsl.com'
    I now have my first wireless network running - and with WPA encryption
    - and it is working !
    Thanks,

  • Need help on IBM ServeRaid 5i BIOS/Firmware upgrade

    Hi,
    We just upgraded the Cisco Call manager on IBM xSeries 345 MT-8670-M1X server with Cisco patch WIN-OS-Upgrade-K9.2000-4-2sr6.exe. After upgrade we got this error message about IBMC ServeRaid 5i controller card.
    "Version mismatch detected: controller 1. The BIOS (version 6.10.24), Firmware (version 6.10.24), and Driver (version 7.10.18) are not a matched set and are not compatible."
    We download the BIOS/firmware upgrade Disk from this web site.
    http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-62462
    During the upgrade, the server continues ask insert disk1.
    Also this site does not have the latest device drive for IBM ServeRaid 5i in windows 2000 server.
    I need some help and you will get my highest vote
    1. Where can I get the proper BIOS/Firmware upgrade disk from Cisco?
    2. During the upgrade stage, why the server always ask “insert disk 1”. I have tried all 5 disks. But none of the work. I disconnect the mirri during the upgrade. Does it affect the upgrade?
    3. Where can I get the latest device driver for 5i work with windows 2000 server?
    Many thank
    Kevin

    Hi kevin,
    Open a case wid TAC they will direct you on the right route.

  • Wrvs4400n not stable after firmware upgrade help!!

    Hi,
    I need some help.
    System:
    WRVS4400N wireless router
    Firmware 1.1.03
    IPS:  1.31
    I went through LinkSys site and downloaded the new firmware and ips signature listed above.  I upgraded my system a few days ago and having alot of problems with disconnection through the router.  I would have to reset my wireless router every so often since the firmware upgrade.  Most of the time, it would take one tries but sometime i would have to unplug and plug the router's power cable many times before having internet access.  My previous firmware version i believe is 1.0.06 and it was working fine except that my MAC OS X wasn't able to connect via wireless connection.  That's why i decided to proceed with the firmware upgrade.  Now, the new firmware is giving me a whole new problem and unfortunely i forgot to back up my previous system's config (firmware).
    I am sure this problem is not caused by my IPS or the modem because when the connections get dropped, i was able to connect directly through the modem.  I am not sure if others are experiencing the same problem, but at this point, i think this is some bug on the new firmware.  Please i need some solution to this.  Any advice or suggestions?
    Thanks

    There is a Recovery program for recovering from the latest firmware "upgrade" that borks the router. The latest "firmware "upgrade" completely trashed my router. I could not even connect to it from its internal IP (192.168.1.1) to attempt to downgrade the firmware. Nice of Linksys to allow people to go through an upgrade that trashes their router. Then to make matters worse, the Receovery program only works in windoze, so I had to find a windoze machine to use to downgrade the firmware. What happens if you run Linux - out of luck. Long story short, why not have some kind of warning on the firmware upgrade that unless you first do the recovery firmware flash, you can kiss you router goodbye for the time being.

    hey!
    at least these things will be updated after updating the firmware:
    -The famous restarting problem
    -Loudspeaker is more powerful enough and sounds clearer
    -Navigation is a big improvement
    -Will likely read most 4GB microSD cards
    these are not the only changes, these are only the most noticeable updates, and as you see the sound will be more powerful! i have updated and experienced the difference! it really changes!

  • N96 crash during firmware upgrade & unrecoverable

    Finally Nokia sent me a text to say that a firmware upgrade - from 10 to 11 was available. I've tried to install it after first backing up the phone. During upgrade where the upgrade software continually referred to connection problems (while the Nokia PC Suit showed the connection to be in place) with about 5 minutes of remaining installation time the installer gave up. It asked me to turn off the phone and reconnect which I did. The installer could not recover the installation. I now have a phone that will turn on but just has a blank screen and PC Suit won't recognise it so I can't restore from the backup.
    Any ideas? Does my second N96 have to be sent back to Nokia?
    This is all becoming rather silly...

    B4 you update I found this improves the way it works
    before you connect phone by USB
    Plug in charger and leave in (make sure its turned on at the wall socket)
    1st switch to line 1 if you have 2 lines
    set profile on genral
    turn off password on boot
    turn OFF pincode request
    turn OFF fixed dial
    IF you have Lights ON installed uninstall it (you can put it back after)
    if You have any other prog that RUNS all the time Like Lights ON unistall that too. (eg rotate me on N95)
    TURN OFF PHONE
    remove SD card
    TURN ON PHONE to get a clean boot with nothing running in background
    now make sure you connect in PC suite mode when you plug in USB
    run P C suite click on Spanner TOOLS
    go down to software update
    NOW WAIT if it says there is a new version or it loads new drivers
    there are 5 or 6 cable drivers that it MUST load before it starts it only does that once the 1st time
    Now all will go well
    most of the crashes are caused by either a prog running on the phone or the pin or password being set and the phone cant reboot or a flat battery

  • HELP! Frozen mac due to firmware update crash. How do i restart it?

    I have had my Tiger 10.4.7 Mac for 4 months, no problems, but when computer done a firmware update, it got part way through and I lost power to computer. Now when I try to turn on all that happens is a black screen with the white power dot on constant. I tried to install the OS X install disc but I cant get that out now as none of the keyboard buttons seem to work. I tried the support phone line, but they just told me to download a firmware patch. I lookedon the site but have no idea which one they suggest to try, and how would I get it to recognise it anyway? Any ideas please?

    There is a download for restoring original firmware on the Apple download page, for each computer.
    You need to download it, burn it to a CD and follow the instructions.
    And never do a firmware upgrade on any computer unless it is on a UPS. Sometimes it is not recoverable and requires factory service to repair.
    But I suspect that the restore firmware CD will work for you.

  • Nokia n80 firmware upgrade problems

    Hi all i just tried to do a firmware upgrade using the nokia sites stuff and my pc crashed and now my fone wont turn on could some1 please tell me
    1 if this is terminal
    2 if i can sort this out myself
    3 point me in the right direction for the info i need to sort out my 3 week fone
    4 how much i should expect to pay if i HAVE to go to a shop to get it sorted
    thanks in advance for any help given

    Right first thing I would try is to connect your mobile to your pc and try running NSU again. If it connects to your N80 great you should be able to just start over.
    (Tips: Run only the NSU on PC close all other programmes down. and ensure your N80 is charged fully or at least plug your charger into the N80 whilst doing the update.)
    If your N80 Isn't recognised by the NSU then its dead and the only way go revive the poor little things is to:
    1: Take is to a Nokia Service Centre. Carphone warehouse is usually your closest NSC, If your lucky they will have an 'on site' techinician and he will fix your N80 within an hour or same day, if not then you will have to leave it with them for a week or so.
    2: Call your Service provider, tell them your N80 just went bye bye and they should swap it for you or at least give you a refurbished N80.
    You won't be charged by the Nokia Service Centre for any work done as your within your warrenty and if you choose to go back to your service provider you should also be covered. This has happened to me and I sent my N80 back to O2 they had a refurbished model sent back to me within a couple of days with no charges.

  • Having Firmware problems NEED HELP A

    I had tried to load an update to the firmware to my Creative Zen Touch, and during the installation, the power flickered and my computer turned off. I am now stuck with a Zen Touch with no OS and it isno longer recognized by my computer or the firmware upgrade program.... HELP PLEASE

    I'm kinda of new to this but I would recommend trying to enter recovery mode on the device. I have the Zen Nano plus and you hold the power button as you plug it into the USB cable - continue to hold it for 0 seconds. The screen will show nothing but windows XP pops up with a new device detected. Connect to the internet and let windows find a new driver for the recovery device. Then start the upgrade program again (at least this is how it works for the Nano plus). You might have to call or email tech support (email is free) if that doesn't work.

  • Sky Router firmware upgraded - can no longer login with credentials

    I usually have no problems accessing my sky router (white Sky Hub with ADSL) via the page 192.168.0.1 however I tried to login the other day and was greeted with an updated looking summary screen - all very nice I thought, let's go and explore! However when I put in the usual details - username: admin, password: sky I get prompted to input my details again which is very odd. Now I know that I am the only one who accesses the router in this way as my flatmate has never logged in and probably never will so I can only assume the firmware upgrade has caused the password/username to change. I logged in the other week and the password is saved in my browser so I am sure I am not making any mistake here. I have tried in chrome and IE just in case but I have the same issue in both. Has the new firmware brought a new default password? I cannot find any reference to this anywhere on this site so it seems unlikely. I would rather not reset my router to default settings as I have devices with static IP addresses and port forwarding setup that will take me some time to reconfigure. I don't think there is any feature to backup the config unless you are actually logged in to the router but would love to be worng about this. I am guessing I will have to bite the bullet and reset to factory defaults but would welcome any help or suggestions if possible?

    After review the events of the morning.....
    I normally keep my routers in the basement where my eth jacks all hub.  High on a shelf, I got reasonable coverage on 2.4Ghz even on the second floor.  I went to this router for the Dual mode, but found the 5Ghz didn't make it sufficiently well to the second floor.  So it was moved to the first floor, on a counter.  That morning the router started acting up a bit, not bringing an iphone online.  It was looked at - and a couple of post cards that had been placed on top, removed.  Air flow was not blocked around the sides in any way - just a few pieces of card stock on top to interfere with convection off the top.  
    1.  There is no way to look at temperature - maybe the device doesn't even know its own temp.
    2.  There is no fan that I can discern.  Clearly, creating a device that is designed to sit on a flat surface in a home environment ought to take into consideration "normal impediments to air flow".   Temp controlled fans is simple, well proven tech.
    3.  This design is small, has TWO radios, sits horizonal (thus is going to have lousy convection) - seems to me an engineer ought to have given more thought to not only providing the user with easy to obtain data (temp), alternative methods (fan/vertical mounting) and/or self-protection (to hot, I'm shutting down rather than corrupt my database).
    Having spent millions on Cisco gear in my career, I would have hoped that Cisco+Linksys would have a little more Cisco and a little less Linksys.

  • No contacs after firmware upgrade on N70

    Hi
    I did a firmware upgrade yesterday on my N70 using NSU. Of course I did a backup using the uptodate Nokia PC suite. After the firmware upgrade I saved the data back to the phone aagin using the Nokia PC suite. Everything looks good except that no contacts are there.
    I did the upgrade again just to make sure that everything went OK with the same result.
    Can some help or has the same problem?

    Best regards

    not sure about your PC Suite version but this has been well documented in these forums and I had the same problem and with N70. I think it was mentioned as a PC Suite issue, or a combined PC Suite issue N70 issue with many people reporting it. Anyway nothing you can do but enter your contacts or transfer from another phone
