RVS4000 firmware upgrade to ver 2.0.3.2

         Hello,
I have firmware version 2.0.2.7. I've down loaded the firmware upgrade utility ver 1.3, and do not see a read me or help file.  I've disconnected the cables as directed, but recive a 'broadcast error' and a 'browse device error'      What is causing this?
Curtis

Hi Curtis, the firmware upgrade should be done through the GUI of the RVS4000. If you're able to log in to the device, the upgrade is under admin -> firmware upgrade, then just browse the file and upload it.

  • The firmware upgrade file is not supported on this hardware version MI424-WR Hardware Ver. C

    Hello - I have been troubleshooting for quite some time a problem that only occurs on my wireless devices.  8 out of 10 times I fail to obtain a IP address from my MI424-WR.  My connection to the device is successful, however, DHCP times out.  I have connected to many other wireless routers in other locations in the last 4 weeks and have isolated my issue to my connection with my FIOS router.  That is to say that when I am elsewhere I do not have this problem.  I contacted support today, and the tech I spoke to was very nice and also clueless.  What is the latest/current hardware ver of the MI424-WR Verizon is shipping?  The tech said he could not tell me what ver the one he had in a lab was.  If l log into the router under firmware upgrade I notice the message in my subject.  I have had FIOS here with the same router since 9/2007.  Any help would be apreciated.

    That brings up something I have been curious about...could you see if this might work for you?
    -First and foremost, log into the router
    -At the top click Wireless Settings
    -Go into basic security settings on the left and change the channel to 11 (yes, I know this doesn't work for all but please read on) and apply
    -Now back on the left side menu choose advanced security settings, enter 802.11b/g Mode
    ---Honestly, most people should need G only by now, but choose what you need here (avoid mixed) and apply
    -Go back onto the left menu and try advanced wireless settings again but this time choose "Other Advanced Wireless Options" at the bottom
    -Change MTU to "manual" and enter in "1492" in the field it provides and apply
    -Now at the top right go into advanced settings
    -Click on the link for "System settings"
    -In here UNCHECK the "Enable Logging" and "Low Capacity Notification" options and apply
    I don't think they would be able to tell you which version is being shipped, because I am sure the new routers are coming with the new firmware and the old they send out first.  But yeah, give that a shot and see if that does anything to help your wireless machines connect.  I am kind of curious if that will change anything.

  • WRT54G Ver 1.1 Firmware Upgrade

    I was experiencing some connection problems that were causing me to cycle the power on my router a few times a week. I decided to upgrade the firmware to 4.21.1 hoping to resolve this issue. The firmware upgrade completed and all configuration settings were put back as I had before the upgrade.
    Since the update, I cannot connect to the internet through my DSL when connecting through the router. I can connect to the internet when my computer is directly connected to the modem. I called Linksys and I was told to reset the router three times. Had no results.
    Can anyone help me out with this? Or is there a place where I can download the old firmware that I originally had?
    I have a WRT54G ver 1.1 and Bellsouth DSL
    Thanks
    (Edited post for guideline compliance. Thanks!)

    --Update--
    I solved the problem. The Bellsouth DSL modem is in bridge mode after it is either reset (hard button) or configured via the web utility.
    WITHOUT connecting the router to the modem, configure the router to be PPPoE insted of DHCP. If the router is connected to the modem while still in DHCP mode, the modem will assume the router is a computer. This will kick the modem out of bridge mode.
    So the steps to solve the problem are:
    1) Disconnect ethernet between router and modem.
    2) Reset modem / put in bridge mode.
    3) Connect to router via web utility and configure PPPoE settings.
    4) Connect router and DSL modem via ethernet cable.

  • WRT54G ver.6 no WLAN after firmware upgrade

    I just did a manual firmware upgrade for the router (WRT54Gv6 v1.02.2_fw)... when I went to rest it by holding down the rest button for 30 seconds, nothing appeared to happen. The light for the WLAN is now out. When I go to directly connect it to a computer, it says 'limited connectivity' local only. The Power, 1, and Internet lights still blink. I cannot access the web browser utility at 192.168.1.1 (nothing loads). Resetting still doesn't appear to do anything (lights don't flash off or change or anything)... Any ideas?

    Open a DOS window and do "ping 192.168.1.1". If you get replies, there's still a chance. If it times out or any other error message then it can't be helped. If the router is less than 3 years old, call linksys for a replacement.
    The box said windows xp or better... So I installed Linux!

  • Firmware upgrade failure with zen Vision M 30

    Hi Guys, new to this and need some help as it has been a few days waiting on anything sensible to come from Creative support. History. Daughter got the new creative vision M 60gig and gave old (0 months) 30 gig to Dad Smiles all round. Dad (tech support manager) loads up system software and re formats the dri've. Finds new firmware upgrade so down loads and goes through the prosess of updating. Now up to this point, unit was working fine and was seen by win xp in the 'my computers list' but is new to my computer. Selected reload firmware which erased the old and told me to install the new. I ran the downloaded .exe file (latest) and it told me it could not find a device. Spent last night looking over the web for clues. Windows media play was listed but it turns out that it was only the beta that had an issue (in any event, it would not let me remove it as it wanted to do a roll back but could only find ver to roll back to). Sent out message to creative who cam back and told me to roll back wmp (great help) and to change the permissions for USB which I did. This then caused my computer to blue screen twice (had to re boot in safe and exit to recover). Ran registry mechanic and it fixed several things but still the unit is not seen by the upgrade program. When I boot the player up, it detects it has a firmware issue and puts me in the recovery mode screen. But nothing I do gets the upgrade to work. Any one got any ideas?

    I have a similar problem. I tried to upgrade my firmware. So it erased the one that was on the player, and when i try to install the new one the computer says the device isn't plugged in, even though when i plug it in the pop up menu is displayed and it says DOcked on the player and the player is charging

  • RVS4000 firmware update won't update

    Two days ago Cisco released an firmware update (2.0.0.3v2) for the RVS4000. I downloaded it and my router won't recognize it as a firmware upgrade. I noticed the file has a .img extension I thought perhaps it meant for me to burn an image of the firmware so that I could upgrade from a CD, but apparently Windows7 does not recognize this as a burnable image. I've downloaded the file with Firefox, IE and Safari with the same results. Can't burn the .img file and it won't be recognized by the router as a firmware upgrade.
    What do Cisco?

    The following is straight from the firmware release note.
    RVS4000 V2 is a hardware revision of the RVS4000 product. Although all of the
    features of RVS4000 are preserved in the V2 product, the firmware is
    not compatible.
    If your router has hardware version 2, you will see V
    02 in the PIDVID label on the
    bottom panel of the router.
    Firmware v2.0.0.3 shares the same set of known issues as RVS4000 firmware
    1.3.2.0.

  • RVS4000 firmware updates don't work with Internet Explorer 8.0

    I have 2 RVS4000 VPN routers.  Neither would accept firmware updates via the admin browser interface using Internet Explorer 8.0.  After lots of troubleshooting, I tried Chrome (Google) on 1 router and Mozilla Firefox on the other.  Both updates were successful.  The firmware rescue utility that you can download from the Cisco web site also works.  It does the update without the browser interface, but installs a slightly older version of firmware than is availble for browser-based firmware updates.  I hope this saves you time and frustration when you need to update your routers.
    Rene Feitelson

    Rene,
    A thousand thanks for taking the time to post your result. You've made my day!
    I have spent over 8 hours today trying to implement a firmware upgrade on my RVS4000, with zero success. I initially used Safari 5 (on a Win XP SP3 machine) in order to update IPS to v1.42, with no success. Switching to MS IE8 and the update worked fine - hence I stuck with IE8 for the firmware update. I can confirm your result - IE8 does not initiate a firmware update, nor does it provide any feedback whatsoever on its failure.
    Using the Firefox v3.5.9 browser the RVS4000 v1.3.2.0 firmware update worked straight away without a glitch.
    So, perhaps a general "Heads Up" to everyone - if you have any issues when trying to configure your Router, then try using another browser as the first step.
    Many thanks again, Rene.

    Oh, another issue that might help folks:
    When the firmware update file "filename.img" is downloaded from the Cisco site Windows interprets it as a .zip file and associates the usual ZIP file icon to it. Cisco's documentation states "unpack the file and ......". This immediately leads one to believe that the firmware update file is contained in the ZIP file. This is not the case! It is NOT a ZIP file at all, but is the binary that the router requires.
    If one tries to unzip the file WinZip throws up an error "ISO file incomplete" and doesn't unzip it.
    So, ignore the ZIP file icon and just point the router firmware updater at the .img file, despite its ZIP icon.

  • DMP 4300 Firmware Upgrade

    During the firmware upgrade of a DMP 4300 from Ver. 5.0 to Ver. 5.0.2 there was a disconnection and the upload of firmware image was interrupted.
    The DMP now does not boot and gives no display at all. It shows the red led indication but does not try to take an IP from DHCP.
    Is there a way to resolve this issue?
    Regards,
    Chaitanya Datar

    Chaitanya,
    My apologies, but a power disruption or a transfer interruption during the firmware upgrade could cause a non-recoverable error on the DMP. The DMP will display the symptoms that you describe.  The only resolution is to Open a Case with the Cisco TAC and RMA the DMP.

  • Wireless B router woes after firmware upgrade

    I downloaded and installed the firmware upgrade for my wireless B ver.4 router and now it's not transmitting a wireless signal. Computers plugged into the wireless router get internet connection, but it doesn't seem that the the router is broadcasting wireless. I tried to go to my routers set-up by using the default router IP...but it won't connect...any thoughts?

    Since you have upgraded the firmware on your Router, You need to Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...

  • PETITION: This is what I would like to see in a new firmware upgrade for the MTP ZEN TO

    - Allows users to transfer tracks between folders on the player when using a program such as Creative Mediasource [THIS IS NEEDED FOR ALL MTP PLAYERS]
    - Allows charging via USB when the player is not being used by a program or is low on battery [THIS FEATURE SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN REMOVED BY MTP UPGRADE]
    ENHANCEMENTS / ADDITIONAL FEAUTRES [I HAVE LISTED THESE BY MY PERSONAL ORDER OF PREFERENCE]:
    ) Allows the playback of Audible content types ,2,3,4 on the player, via a plug-in in Audible Manager
    2) Adds bookmarking feature to the player
    3) Adds SmartVolume EQ feature to the player
    4) Adds DJ menu to the player
    5) Allows user to partition a section of the player for data transfer
    6) Allows user to synchronise tasks from Outlook to the player
    7) Allows TXT files/ Ebooks to be stored/ viewed on the player
    8) Adds BassBoost EQ feature to the player
    PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION TO URGE CREATIVE TO INTRODUCE AT LEAST SOME OF THESE FIXES / FEATURES IN A FIRMWARE UPGRADE FOR THE MTP ZEN TOUCH - also please feel free to add other suggestions that would improve the functionality of the Zen Touch

  • HDMI output not working since firmware upgrade

    I would appreciate troubleshooting tips for getting the HDMI output to work. I just tried it recently for the first time in a long while, approximately 4 weeks after doing the firmware update to 2.2. When I did it before, plugging in the HDMI cable would automatically start output to my HD TV. Now that is no longer the case. Changing the HDMI output from "Auto" to "720p" does not make a difference either.
    Otherwise, everything works well and I've been satisfied with my Creative 7 to date. I have installed several apps so it could be that there is a conflict and nothing related to the firmware upgrade.
    Any troubleshooting suggestions would be appreciated.

    Well I've received my refurbished device for about a week now. The HDMI still doesn't work either with Zii Video or a 3rd party app MoboPlayer. ?I am tempted to reinstall the firmware upgrade again. Is it ok to try this or is it only a one time attempt?
    Perhaps this should be a separate thread but are any of the "Phone 2 SD" apps compatible with the Ziio 7? Whenever I use the "Move to SD card" option, there is still no program moved to the external SD card. ?I have a Ziio 7 with 6 GB of memory as well as a 6GB micro SD card. ?My memory settings are:
    - SD Card: total space - 5.43GB; Available space - 5.43GB
    - Device media storage: Total space - 2.48GB; Available Space - 2.3 GB
    - System storage: Total Space - .97 GB; Available space - .59GB
    In Settings>Applications>Manage Applications, the "On SD Card" tab lists several programs lists several apps but none of them are actually on the external SD card.

  • 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.
