Samba bug in WRT350N firmware

I just bought a WRT350N, and my network computers would not appear in 'my network places'.
I removed the apostrophe's in each computer's name - and the computers appeared on the network. Unfortunately, I was not able to remove the apostrophe on my Mac.
There is a well-documented bug in Samba 3.0.x that causes computers with apostrophe's in their computer name to not be recognized. The WRT350N firmware is an embedded linux kernel with a version of samba that contains this bug.
CISCO/LINKSYS - PLEASE UPDATE YOUR FIRMWARE AND CORRECT THIS PROBLEM!!!

What is your OS? I'm using WinXP and I can't even change my computer's name to a name with an apostrophe.

For the radio problem, You may have to try to reinstall your firmware, or failing that, you may have to do a reset.
For the music library:
1. Connect your 5800 to you PC in Mass Storage Mode
2. On your PC you will need to have allowed to “Show” hidden files, do this from Explorer/Tools/ Folder Options/ View and select “Show hidden files and Folder”
3. Open your SD memory card/Removable Disk in My Computer on PC
4. Go to E:\ Private there you will see 3 folders 101f8857, 101ffca9 and 10281e17 .
5. Go to Private\101f8857\Cache\E there you will see .dat files. Delete all the .dat file BUT NOT the E Folder. Shown above right
6. Now go to Private\101ffca9 there you will see another .dat file, Delete the dat file NOT the folder.
7. Finally go to Private\10281e17 There you should see 4 files 2 are Mp3 files other are Podcast files. Delete mpxv2_2.db & mpxv2_2.db-journal for Mp3 files list and Delete pcv6_1.db & pcv6_1.db-journal for Podcast files list. Shown above right
8. Close all windows and disconnect your Phone. Go to Music Library and it should automatically start a refresh.

Bug in new firmware 7.0 for 6300 cannot create per...

There is bug in new firmware 7.0 for nokia 6300 and maybe all 40 series.
I am not able to create access point which is necessary to access internet with java applications.
When I go Settings -> Configuration -> Personal config.sett. -> Add -> Access point (but also if I choose any other from list)
Then i go back and there is no new access point. In previous version of firmware it created access point.
Do anyone know about this issue ?
How can I tell to Nokia support that there is this bug ?
thanx for replies

I went to local Nokia service, and they told me that probably it was wrongly flashed. So I reinstalled firmware two more time, but it always have the same problem. Is there someone with 6300 that have the newest firmware and can test this ?
thank you
I will put this phone to service and see what they will do.

Report bug in last firmware nokia 130 and 130 dual...

report bug in last firmware nokia 130 and 130 dual sim rm-1037 and rm-1035.
Bug is when you choose phone book and the phone freezes on the menu and after 1 minute menu works but the second attempt to open the phone book phone freezes again. problem is present in the last firmware. I hope that the problem will be eliminated in the next firmware.
I tried also with Nokia Software Recovery Tool but without success, the phone still freezes when opening the phonebook.

1. Country Bulgaria
2. Try with three sim cards three different operators in Bulgaria, Mtel, Globul and Vivacom.
3. 100% of the problem is not in the SIM card, the problem is a bug in the software of nokia 130 and 130 dual.

WRT610N - Bugs and new firmware

I installed WRT610N under XP (original firmware, no updating), runs well: Internet OK. Storage on 500 Mb Western Digital HD OK, FTP OK, WiFi OK, Media Center OK with PS3 (Twonky work well), DDNS is OK.
Considering that: FTP a bit sluggish, FTP autentication not possible (should be sorted out by firmware B10 ?!) , People says that with "B10" it is no longer impossible to get to Twonky through port 9000.
I ask: anybody can suggest me if it is worthy to upgrade my Firmware with the latest "B15" dated 28th of Luglio ? Anybody knows anything ?
Moreover: other owners please keep in touch for info sharing, it seems the only way to get knowledge on it.
Hugs

The die is cast. I have got it. When I bought it the manufacturer has not told me that USB support is crap. In fact it works, but with some bugs.Considering LinkSys Cisco is a mayor Company, I respect them and I count they sort out understandable bugs by updated firmware.
The router is also not cheap, therefore they have an obbligation to the consumers even though the post-sales service is prompt but not qualified (sigh). I forgive them because they have sooner or later to atone for their sins.
I was referring to the forum because the most qualified people who knows where to put hands are the guys like me, and better then me, the one who spend hours to get to the service who has been promised .....(sigh again).
So, I do not accept (respectfully) Your approach.
Anyone who likes to co-operate telling me what about latest July the 28th firmware ?
Hugs

WRT350N Firmware v1.03.6

What happened to the WRT350N Firmware 1.03.6 that was posted on the download site about 7-10 days ago? Anyone else know where it is posted or why it was removed?

I'm afraid I found the basic problem with all WRT350N units: Heat
As my unit was out of waranty anyway, I decided to open it and sniff around, as I'm an Electrical Engineer and I've designed many routers and high end communication equipment.
The first thing I noticed after I removed the outer silver shell on both sides is that the router itself is enclosed in yet another plastic box (this prevents good ventiation to components). By taking this inner box apart I exposed the guts of the router. To my surprise, there was tons of copper tape all over the board, like bandages...Most likely this was necessary to curb RF emissions and pass FCC certification. Again this keeps the heat trapped inside and components cooking up as I could tell just by touching them and nearly burning my fingers.
To reduce design time and leaverage other Linksys products, the wireless portion turned out to be nothing more than a standard PCMCIA card in its original metal enclosure, stuck in a cheap socket and resting on top of the main board, with very little heat dissipation material. It was also very hot to the touch and most likely it was operating (or trying to...) at a much higher temperature than it was designed for.
The fix: In order to keep the components cool, I discarded all original plastic case and mounted the board directly on the back of my desk, leaving enough space on the bottom for air flow. I then attached a 12V DC fan blowing directly on it, for added cooling. I did the same thing with the DSL modem.
I have never have a lock up again or lost internet connectivity since then.
Try this at your own risk though... Good Luck

Bug in WRT600N Firmware: password edit

I discovered a bug in the current WRT600N firmware. When changing the router's password, special characters appear to NOT be recognized, even though the router's error message lists them. For example, if I use a + (plus) sign the router complains. I had no problems with the WRT310N in using a plus sign as part of the password.

I'm getting very similar problems, with the situation not limited to files but to entire folders.
Used the web interface to create shares and created folders within those shares from both an XP pro box and a Vista box. Now, though both boxes can SEE the folders, neither can read or write anything within those folders.
Using the Web interface to create another new share makes a read/writeable share that works -- for what length of time I'm not yet sure.
This is with a new maxtor onetouch. Original files and folders worked fine, but now, completely broken.
I'm running the .35 firmware, too. This thing has other bugs as well.
DATE STAMP is wrong unless you leave time zone to GMT. For some reason, it reads system clock as GMT, and sets time from there.
Certain bits of the web interface lead to "page not found" errors, too.
Probably going to have to return this thing to the store, as this (non) functionality was one of the main reasons I spent the dough on the product. Doesn't work, back it goes.

Wish list / Bugs for E61 Firmware......

hi, just trying to see if this is a good way to feedback to nokia.....Feel free to endorse or add to the list....hehe
Wish List
1. A2DP
2. Sip can use access point group
3. Time of SMS to show sender sending time instead of receiving time.
4. Can choose to search by 1st char of name in contacts
Bugs
1.

I just got my new E-61 yesterday. It still on ver 1 firmware. I bought it on ebay India, its product code is 0530151 (which I believe is a "Euro Silver"). Its a made in Finland piece having "english" and "nederlands" as the two languages. NSU shows updates available but I am scared to death to try that out (all those KB remapping issue scare me) and so I will wait till I am comfortable with the phone.
I notice a few bugs already
1) I made a new profile but if I chose it instead of General, I lose out on having the date in Active Standby page. Considering that there are acres of unused space, its strange that Nokia will do it by design.
2) The voice recorder button is very easy to press by mistake and there seem no way to stop these accidental recordings.
3) If I chose Tools-Setting-Network-Cell Info Display as "ON", I am supposed to get my carrier supplied location text on the screen but it comes momentarily and then gets hidden due to the fact that bluetooth icon obscures it. Even if I keep bluetooth OFF, it still shows cell info part only momentarily. This looks like a bug to me.
4) WLAN and GPRS connection don't close when I close the Nokia browser. Is this by design? In my earlier 6670 I was using Opera and there when I used to exit the connection will close automatically.

A Bug in Nano3 firmware 1.0.3 ?

I bought a nano3 on Dec 24, 2007. One week later I accidently found out that nano3 wouldn't work completely in about 2 hours while playing in "one-song repeat" mode. This is a BIG UNACCEPTABLE RIDICULOUS bug concerning main functions of an MP3/MP4 device which is sold at such a high price. I think Apple should provide firmware updates for this bug as soon as possible.

We know. It's been discussed in many threads over the past few weeks/months.
Here's one such thread.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6122074&#6122074
Hopefully someone from Apple is reading this and will fix.
Nope. This is purely a user to user forum. Send Apple some feedback about this issue.

N97 bugs on v11 firmware

After updating the firmware on my N97, there are bugs both new and old. I wanted to describe them to determine if they are widespread or if it might be an issue with my phone.
1. Landscape mode doesn't work properly. The top section of the screen rarely displays properly and instead usually shows a garbled mixture of the previous screen and the text or symbols from the current screen. This has happened since v10.
2. Yesterday the phone randomly lost all the folders and organisation from the menu. I think it happened after a memory full warning and me removing the battery to reboot the phone. It's never done this previously.
3. Sometimes after booting up, the phone will be keypad locked, and pressing the unlock button prompts the 'press unlock' message, but does not unlock the phone. This lasts for a few minutes.
4. If I'm using up all the RAM and receive a call, when I press answer or reject, it prompts the message 'request rejected'. This prevents the call being answered or rejected, and the flashing phone icon remains on the screen indefinitely until a reboot. Besides these there are also times when the phone locks up and requires the battery to be removed. I initially thought this might be due to low RAM availability, but I do not receive alow RAM warning.

to point 4. what applications are you using in the background? eliminate all apps that you do not need/are not currently using. it is worth investing in a best taksman that costs 1.99$ in ovi store or try y browser its free but also a bit more difficult to use it works just fine tho
http://www.drjukka.com/YBrowser.html
it will help you with how much ram you have what apps are running and other process so you can better manage your phone. its a MUST epsecially for n97 as it has such poor RAM management and amount of it.
You know what I love about you the most, the fact that you are not me ! In love with technology and all that it can offer. Join me in discovery....

Bugs in X121e firmware

I have noticed the firmware/bios of the ThinkPad X121e has had some issues from the start. Some (sometimes newly introduced) issues have been resolved as should be clear from the changelogs, but still many rather serious or annoying bugs seem to persist
I might be a good idea to collect various experiences with issues appearing to be firmware-related.
To kick it off (for the E-350 models):
1) The setting for 'Fn Key Lock' is not consistent after resuming a suspended computer. (for more details look at this thread on thinkpad-forum.de or on this forum.
2) It appears the EFI settings/BIOS can be disturbed critically if more than a certain amount of data is written to the EFI boot option catalog ((using windows' boot editor or linux efibootmgr/efivars) for example when multi-booting or swapping boot loaders/changing operating systems). The result is a computer which cannot add new boot loaders even when deleting previous ones and not being able to save various BIOS-settings. With some bad luck this could lead to an unbootable situation.
I have noticed the firmware/BIOS team can respond quickly to errors (for example the password bug* was fixed quite fast), that is why I am a bit surprised a bug lik 1) can persist for such a long time.
Have others noticed the same/additional (probably firmware related) bugs?

firmware 1.16 has just been released, unfortunately it addresses none of the issues...

Need download link for WRT350N firmware

I have been looking for the latest official firmware for the WRT350N, but when I go to Linksys's official page located here:
http://support.linksys.com/en-us/support/routers/WRT350N
There is no official download link for any model there.
Is there anyone that has the latest firmware or could provide me a download link?
Any reason why they are no longer listed on the site?

Try requesting the firmware in link below. I suppose you can even try to request the firmware from Cisco. It was never clear to me whether or not WRT350N was a linksys product or a Cisco business product.. Can't hurt to try both places. I used to have the latest firmware for the WRT350N on my hard driver, but is so old, I no longer have it.

RE1000 WPS BUG - Request New Firmware

I have noticed that when I turn off WPS in the extender, I can connect to the extender but only for 3 mins, then it connects back to the router.
I think we all need a new firmware with this bug fixed.

I am seeing this issue as well on 3 RE1000 units. We should be able to disable WPS without causing the RE1000 from losing connectivity every 40 seconds or so. The loss of connectivity only lasts about 3 seconds but that is disruptive to the functionality of the extender. I am using hardware version 1.5
Firmware

Ver.1.0.02 (Build 1)
Is there an updated firmware to resolve this issue? If not I will have to return these units

WRT350N firmware upgrade not working

Hi, I've just been given an unused WRT350N router.
I've had a few problems getting it setup on my MAC (OSX 10.5.6), but it transpired they were problems using Firefox which were resolved when I started using Safari. However, I still have one outstanding problem with upgrading the firmware....
I want to upgrade the firmware from the original 2.0.10 to the latest available of 2.0.19. I have downloaded this from the Support page, which gives me a readme text file and a .IMG file which i presume is the firmware file (all instructions I have found imply it should be a .BIN file)
I have connected my router to the MAC using a wired connection and followed the firmware upgrade instructions (selecting the .IMG file), followed the rest steps (including using the hardware reset button, and the software factory defaults option), but when the router comes back up it still says its at firmware 2.0.10.
I get no error messages, and have noticed that at the end of the upgrade it does NOT display the "Upgrade is sucessful, rebooting.." message.
I have been through this several times with same results. Any ideas please ?
Thank in advance.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have this same problem now with firmware for WAG54GS   the zip file produces a .IMG file after running winzip
This file is not acceptable to the firmware upgrade as a .BIN file.
The firmware is expecting a .bin format.   It does not like this .IMG file.
The documentation all refers to .bin.
Just renaming the file as .bin causes the linksys to abandon the upload.
I am on a Windows XP.       .BIN is UNIX/LINUX terminology.    Do I have to do the firmware upgrade on Linux?
Tried to get some software to checkout the   .img file but nothing likes it.
WAG54GSv1-E1-AnnexB-ETSI-ML-1.01.05-code.img is what my winzip gets.
What am I supposed do with this file to get it into the right shape for the     WAG54GS?
It wants   .bin file    not this?
