Firmware Upgrade has hosed my Gateway - Massachusetts

An early morning Gateway firmware upgrade has apparently stopped a lot of Gateway's from recognizing devices. In addition, the Gateway will go offline and come online 2 dozen times in an hour. I'm getting a little frustrated with the downtime of this product. Thankfully it's only $9.99, becuase that's all it's worth.

Yikes, only thing I can think of is an Apple Store possibly being able to cure it.

    Hi, My name is Eric Moyers. I am a Network Support Engineer in the Cisco Small Business Support Center. Thank you for using the Cisco Community Post Forums.
    It looks like you pulled the bin file out of the tar file you downloaded. Please try to do the upgrade with the tar file. I believe that is what the WAP is looking for.
    Let me know how that goes.

  • [Zen Micro] Firmware upgrade has bloc

    Hi,
    I'm upgrading my Zen Micro firmware from ..0 to 2.2.02 version right now, but it looks like the process has stuck. My processor seems not to be working, the progress bar is no more advancing and the arrows on my player are white. There's a message on the window that says "Rebooting your player. Please wait." But nothing actually happens. What should I do? If I plugged off my player, can I cause it any damage? Should I restart the upgrade? As the 'Close' button is available for clicking, I can assume the process is stoppable and its terminating shouldn't cause damages... can't I?
    Please, help me.
    Thank you for your suggestions.

    And no software will acknowledge mine since I stupidly upgrade to the 2 level firmware. I've been on a three-week merry go round with email customer service...they've even had me go into the registry of my computer (yikes!) but no solution.

  • 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.

  • NMH410 Firmware Upgrading Error

    Hello everyone,
    I recently upgraded the HDDs on my NMH410 and basically it resets everything and even roles back the firmware.
    But this time around I couldn't manage make it upgrade. Everytime I receive this error message:
    "Error - Result"
    Firmware Upgrade has encountered an error. Upgrade Aborted!
    There is a thread on this forum suggesting to change the DNS Server but it didn't work for me either.
    What to do? Anyone having or had similar issues? Is it something from the Cisco's side?
    Is there a way to sideload the firmware or force to install it by directly accessing the hub?

    Here's an article that might help you: http://kb.linksys.com/Linksys/ukp.aspx?pid=80&app=vw&vw=1&login=1&json=1&docid=ec5f31fe7f0f4a8c9a89a...

  • Firmware upgrade failed, printer now say i has firmware version 0. attention light lights up

    Hey all
    I had a problem printing a pdf on my mac, and then tried to upgrade my mac driver and printer firmware.
    But the firmware upgrade failed for some unknown reason. And now the printer just have the ready and attentions lights on constantly.
    I have tried to restart and reset the printer many times, and tried the HP firmware upgrade utility several times, with no luck. It just say it was "failed to upgrade"
    Any idea what to do ??
    My printer is a HP Laserjet Pro CP1025nw
    Thanks
    Jan

    Hello Jan
    It definitely sounds like the firmware update failed. Firmware is like a devices Operating System. Without it, it can't do much. This is backed by the "failed" message and that your printer reports it has version 0.
    The printer will need to be serviced. Please call HP Phone Support at 1-800-474-6836.
    Don't forgot to say thanks by giving "Kudos" to those that help solve your problems.
    When a solution is found please mark the post that solves your issue.

  • Has the cloud firmware upgrade being fixed yet?

    I am looking to buy a new router (E3200 or greater)
    All the reviews are complaining about that specific firmware upgrade that users` have been forced to with the cloud thing.
    Is this still in place/happening?

    This issue was clarified in this site: http://blogs.cisco.com/home/update-answering-our-customers-questions-about-cisco-connect-cloud-2/. These are the items tackled in that blog: Linksys customers are not required to sign-up for the Cisco Connect Cloud service and they are able to opt-out of signing up for an account, Customers can set-up and manage their Linksys router without signing up for a Cisco Connect Cloud account, Cisco will not arbitrarily disconnect customers from the Cisco Connect Cloud service based on how they are using the Internet, Cisco Linksys routers are not used to collect information about Internet usage, Cisco only retains information that is necessary to sign up for and support the Cisco Connect Cloud service , Cisco will not push software updates to customers’ Linksys routers when the auto-update setting is turned off.

  • Firmware Upgrade causes severe slowness and Hangs

    Has anyone else encountered this problem? I did do the firmware upgrade, and that caused slowness in responsiveness (followed immediately by that spinning wheel). In some cases, it completely hangs. At this time, I also tried to VNC into it, and it wasn't listening. It looks like GUI and network connectivity got hosed. This happens at least 10 times today.
    Any suggestions?

    spingineer,
    I haven't seen the firmware update (done 2x) alone cause the problems that you're mentioning. In fact, I didn't notice a thing after running it. I DID notice issues when I ran all the updates (machine fresh out of the box and then everything at once). You machine shouldn't be any slower. Make sure you have enough free space on your drive.
    The obvious, and often underused, diagnostic tool is to create a new user account and see if the issues persist there. If not, then look to what's running in your login items and your applications. You may just need to repair permissions, but sometimes it helps to verify or repair the disk.
    As to the network connectivity. I'd say it's basically a given that a lot of minis aren't good citizens.
    What I see is contention. It's like the machine thinks 'oh, someone else is using the connection so I'll back off a bit then try again', even if nothing else is on at all. It could be partially hardware, there are changes in the machines; but it might be something that can be solved w/ modifications to the stack. It's almost like a feedback loop. The more you use the connection the more it thinks it is competing w/ other machines for access and the slower it becomes. Try the usual, zap the pram, repair permissions, etc. There's a good link if you use search to a tutorial that may help you w/ some network connectivity issues on the mini. (moving out system configuration, promoting your primary connection to the top, using the assistant, rebooting and zapping the pram).
    As easy as it seems to look at the firmware as the source of the problems, I haven't seen that as the foundation issue for either of the difficulties you are experiencing with your machine.
    Hopefully a few simple resets and permission repairs etc will remedy the issue.
    Good Luck,
    -j

  • Firmware upgrade crippled cp1025nw

    LaserJet CP1025nw color: was working flawlessly
    received email from HP 4/3/2012, recommending firmware upgrade to v 20120130.
    ran upgrade 4/3/2012 from iMac, OS10.6.8.
    got error: 'update failed'
    print queue says 'printing', cp1025nw doesn't respond.
    printer lights:  orange triangle enclosed exclamation mark plus green semicircle 
      This means: fatal error, per the user manual.  
       manual instructs to turn off, unplug, plug-in, turn on.  I did this several times.
    printer lights still indicate: fatal error.
    HP utility says: device status: unknown, service ID: unknown, FW version: unknown, driver version 2.0.20110727
                      tried to print configuration page: got error 'cannot establish two-way communication with the device'
                      printer and computer are connected with USB cable,  (this cable / port communicates without issue to Epson inkjet printer)
    Tried printing from Dell laptop: Latitude E6410 with USB cable: Windows XP professional, 2002, service pack 3.
                      has routinely printed from this computer previously.
    error message in printer queue: 'error - printing', 
    Dell said 'found new hardware'  tried to install with HP cd-rom
                      error message said 'the hardware was not installed because the wizard cannot find the necessary software'
    ran the HP print diagnostic utility HPPDU.exe file from the Dell with USB cable: 'Everything checks out okay with your printer'
     print test page: no response from the cp1025nw
    What should I try next?

    Since my last post I’ve retried the same troubleshooting described before, this time just from the PC.  The result is still the same.  Lights on the cp1025nw indicate “fatal error”.
    Does anyone know how to put this printer into ‘bootcode’ mode?  I’ve read about this in some other posts about HP firmware updates trashing printers.

    and

    Is there some combination of button presses that sends the printer into bootcode so it is ready to accept the firmware?

  • PC-Suite sync fails after Firmware upgrade of E65

    After firmware upgrade of E65 PC-Suite stops syncing Calendar & Contacts from outlook. No error messages, just "0 entries has been updated".
    - PC-Suite updated to 7.0.9.2
    - Outlook 2003
    - XP Prof.
    Any ideas?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The funny thing is - the notes are synced???? If I restore some old contacts they'll double up in outlook, so I think the problem is, that the sync app doesn't see the outlook contact & calendar folder.
    Does somebody has an idea?

  • No power after firmware upgrade on nomad jukebox zen xtra

    I have the nomad jukebox zen xtra 30gig that froze up over a year ago after i tried to install the firmware upgrade. After the unsuccessful attempt, the mp3 player stopped working.... I mean no power at all. I've changed the battery and recharged the battery from an outside source...still no luck. I can't even try any of the suggestions anyone gives on this site because I have no power.Does anyone have this problem? More important, does anyone have this problem and know of a solution?I've already set my pc back to wmp 0, I have the firmware on the desktop waiting. Now all I need is some power on this unit so that i can try some of the suggestions that seems to be working for people. Thank you

    I have the same problem too, but my unit is a?Creative Normad Junebox Zen Xtra 40GB. I was trying to find a solution to my problem when I read about your problem. I have pressed the reset button, on / off switch, removed the battery, reinstalled the battery, and nothing seems to work. I was hoping you?might get a solution to this problem, so that I might be able to fix my MP3 player. If I hear of a solution, I will let you know, thanks for sharing. Issue:? While updating the firmware to the Zen Xtra 40 GB, the unit powered down and?has never came on again. There seems to be no real reason why the unit should not power up. The battery and the AC adapter are working correctly. I am very disappointed in Creative...

  • 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?

    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

  • Firmware upgrade, then lost

    Hi,
    Quickly following automatic firmware upgrade on 1 week old Time capsule, network is now lost. Airport set up utility can't find Time Machine .. others experience the same problem? TM feels hot .. perhaps overheated due to firmware upgrade. Solutions welcome.

    Your computer came with OS 9.0.4 installed. OS9.1 is required for Classic so is handy to have, and apparently your firmware installer requires 9.2.1 You can use free updaters to update to any later OS9 version from any earlier one.
    I don't see any option but to obtain a used copy of OS9. Make sure you get the gold full retail version rather than a machine specific version since the latter will only work in those computers for which they were designed. You can get away with a machine specific version as long as it exactly corresponds to the model and build of yours, but that is often hard to confirm until too late in the purchase.
    Note that any drive you want to use with OS9 either for purposes of installing OS9 or for running software will have to have OS9 drivers present on it. These are installed when you format a drive and cannot be installed later without reformatting the drive (and losing everything on it). If your computer still has its original drive then those will likely still be on there unless you reformatted the drive with OSX and did not select the keep OS9 drivers option (there's no harm in doing so and it saves a lot of trouble for doing exactly what you are trying to do). You can can have a drive present that doesn't have the drivers but it simply won't be seen by OS9.
    Disconnect all third party hardware (including PCI cards) when updating the firmware.
