Westell 9100EM Firmware update address?

Looking at the 9100EM firmware address page that checks for the most recent firmware hupgrade has an invalid ip address listed in there. 
What is the correct address that should be listed here for this?

  • Westell 9100EM Router Firmware - latest version?

    I have a Westell 9100EM FIOS Router with firmware version 2.01.02.00  .  As far as I know, it's never been updated since the install several years ago since my update setting has been set to "Automatic Update DIsabled" from the pull-down choices in the Advanced Upgrade Firmware section in the Router setup screen. 
    All is working ok, no problems, but I was curious if there was a more recent firmware version available for download & install.
    I found a link here and downloaded the firmware file (haven't tried installing) but I wanted to see if this was the latest version as the version # appears to be an earlier version.
    The downloaded version # is A90-9100EM15-10_1.02.00.04 which would seem, at a glance, to indicate an earlier version # than my existing Router version.
    Has anyone updated the Westell 9100EM firmware recently with the above version?
    Solved!

  • MacBook Pro Keyboard Firmware Update 1.0

    ... now available via Software Update. Thank heavens! See, we weren't imagining it. From the installer:
    "This MacBook and MacBook Pro firmware update addresses an issue where the first key press may be ignored if the computer has been sitting idle. It also addresses some other issues.
    The update package will install an updater application into the Applications/Utilities folder and will launch it automatically. Please follow the instructions in the updater application to complete the update process."
    Lots more information here:

    you will probably need to take it into apple. firmware updates are a very serious matter. firmware is your hardware's version of a driver. if the firmware update was halted, chances are that the hardware is now worthless.
    what i would try before taking it in:
    first, plug in an external keyboard and mouse to see if you can try executing the update again. if that fails, you may try to re-install leopard in an effort to overwrite the firmware update. if that fails as well, take it to apple as they will probably need to replace any hardware which has incomplete or corrupted firmware.

  • Fios Westell Model 9100EM firmware issue

    So i'm a born again Fios Internet owner, since I move from an area where I had Fios to an area that didn't and now move again to an area that has it.
    I was given a cd about my router, and saw information about updating the firmware. I log into the router control panel where it asked about the URL to the firmware. I did not know, so I Google the model and firmware, and I was brought to this POST...
    So I looked up the fireware for my router and they provided a firmware of 1.02.00.04, but the firmware on my router currently is 1.03.00.08. Of course it wouldn't allow me to install the downgrade, but why isn't the 1.03.00.08 not on there?
    Fios Router Firmware Download Site

    It's actually a good thing 1.03.00.08 isn't on there.
    It breaks routers, as you can see from the post I made a couple days ago: http://forums.verizon.com/t5/FiOS-Internet/Where-have-all-my-router-s-features-gone-Westell-9100EM/t...
    But, if you're really interested, here's the URL for the firmware: http://download.verizon.net/webdownload/firmware/upgrades/westell_router_9100em/A90-9100EM15-10-1.03...
    Also, if you read through my post, downgrading is possible, but it takes more work than the average user may be willing to do (and even still, Verizon forces new updates on your router, even if you don't agree to them).

  • Westell 9100EM and Linsys WRT54G together

    In my house, the Westell 9100EM router is in the Far Northeast corner of the home where my (rather old) home computer is located...  Our bedrooms are located on the exact opposite corner of the home, in the SW area.  Wireless service is quite poor in that area.
    I have an existing Linksys WRT-54G router that worked very well when I had SBC DSL at an older house in another area.  What I'm thinking is to put the WRT-54G in the middle of the house or in the back bedroom to provide wireless to that corner.
    I see a lot of information on the boards and so forth about the Actiontec router and doing this but very little on the 9100EM router.  Can anyone point me in a direction that gives more thorough directions for this?  Has someone made this work?
    Thanks in Advance for the help!

    Only if you have an ethernet port where you want to put it.  If you do connect to it locally hard wired and change the subnet to 192.168.2 and set the wanport to a fixed address on the 192.168.1 subnet e.g. 192.168.1.254  Then connect the wan port of the linksys to a lan port of the 9100em via the in house wiring.  the linksys by default cannot connect by wirelss to the 9100em.
    If you have no inhouse wiring and are somewhat technically savvy and your wrt54g is a newer rev you can hack the firmware to change it to a wireless forwarder - see tomato.  Google it on the net.  Be warned that if you mess it up you have a very light boat anchor.

  • Bridging a Westell 9100EM Router to a Netgear N600

    Hello there,
      I was wondering if there was a way to turn my Westell 9100EM Router into an access point/bridge, so I can setup my Netgear N600 Router to work as a client, so that the signal is evenly and more furtherer spread across my house. I am an intermediate when it comes to networking, so a step-by-step would be heavily appreciated. Thank you! 

    If you have FiOS TV service, then you shouldn't bridge it.  Verizon interlaced so many TV features into the westell router that it would probably put a damper on your FiOS TV experience.
    These features include
    The Guide System and Updates
    The Video On Demand
    The Widgets
    Caller ID on TV
    Multi Room DVR 
    Remote DVR 
    So if you have FiOS TV, don't bridge.  Instead you CAN piggy back the router, and get the same affect. Follow the instructions below.
    Can I use my wireless or an extra router along with the Verizon provided router?
    If you don't have FiOS TV service, then Check Which Wan LIGHT is lit on your router.
    If you have just the ETHERNET WAN lit, then just simply release your ip address of your westell, disconnect it and plug in your router.  Configure it for DHCP and you should be good to go.
    If you have Coax WAN Lit, then you can make a choice.
    You can hook up ethernet cable from the Verizon ONT directly to your router. Call Verizon and ask them to switch you to ethernet (online chat also might be able to help you do this)
    You can try bridging the modem using one of the methods listed in this FAQ

  • Westell 9100em crashes periodically

    I have had a Westell 9100em for about a year - (model no A90-9100EM15-10, firmware version 1.02.00.04),
    Every so often, the router crashes and loses all configuration information. In addition, all log entries are wiped out except for a number of entries that read December 31, 2002. This usually happens when I am away and most dependent on having access to my network.
    UPNP is disabled. I am using WPA/WPA2 security on the wireless. I have static mac addresses that are working fine when the router is up and my connection is coax.
    More recently I have discovered that one thing that can cause it to crash is trying to access the wireless from a MAC laptop. Even if a machine is not authorized to access the wireless, I don't think it should be crashing the router,
    Verizon replaced the router a couple months into this and it seemed to go away for awhile, but maybe I was just lucky and no MAC users were trying to access my wireless. It seems like a firmware issue and I see similar symptoms reported but only the one solution - turning off UPNP - which didn't help in my case. As near as I can tell, the firmware version I have is the latest. Any ideas anyone?
    Thanks in advance!

    This is a problem with verizons equipment i have the same issues. I recently was contacted by someone at verizon who is contacting the distributors of these routers. Hopefully they get the problems fixed. 

  • Westell 9100EM - DNS issue.

    Some time ago DNS started to work unstable.
    I've read similar cases around, but none of them looks similar to mine...
    DNS stop functioning all the time for several seconds...
    E.g.. If I constantly do the nslookup than at least once a minute I'm getting behavior showed below.
    At the same time, Google DNS responds with no issues.
    I managed to configure most of my numerous devices to use Google DNS, but I do not like such approach.
    Router firmware update did not help.
    In router logs there is a line:
    Apr 19 22:31:23 2011 System Log Message daemon.warn DNS: unknown PTR name format
    I could not find correlation between this line and issue, but I did not look deep enough, though.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you.

    (I'm topicstarter here)...
    Funny thing, I contacted Verizon customer support recently and encountered very intellegent and responsive person who read all the details (I used the live chat option) and suggested to replace router for free with the new one - not Westel, something starts with letter A.
    I was little bit disappointed that new router had only 100Mb switch and no 5GHz band support... But at least it supports the wifi-N...
    Anyway, I do not need all these bells and whisles cause I'm using NetGear router for wifi + Cisco home switch for wired network.
    Sorry, I deviated from the main issue course.
    I do not have any update on the DNS issue cause all my devices still configured to use Google DNS servers. 
    However, I expect that quite soon I will get Logitech Revue and will have update on this issue.

  • WAP4410N wireless traffic locks up even when running latest firmware update

    I maintain multiple buildings, and each building has anywhere between 1 and 4 Cisco/Linksys WAP4410N access points. The problem is that at random intervals, the access points just stop sending and receiving wireless traffic. Every day or two, I have to log into every single access point (either via HTTPS or SSH) and reboot them in order for them to start working again.
    In short, here are the config details:
    They are all version 2 hardware (either WAP4410N-A V02 or WAP4410N-E V02).
    They are running IPv4 (IPv6 is disabled) and get static IP addresses via DHCP.
    When there are WAPs with overlapping signals, each WAP is on a different non-overlapping channel (1, 6, or 11).
    Each WAP has two SSIDs (with spaces in their names). One is secured with WPA2. The other is unsecured.
    There are two VLANs on the Ethernet interface. Each of the two SSIDs are assigned to a separate VLAN.
    There is a DHCP server on the network, so the WAPs do not actually assign IP addresses to clients.
    All of the WAPs are running on PoE switches. However, some are gigabit and some are 10/100 switches. Brands vary (Dell and Linksys) and models vary.
    Cisco finally recognized this issue as:
    CSCtx62203—In certain environments and traffic model, the WAP4410N may lockup after some undetermined time. Workaround: Reboot the device.
    As such, the workaround didn’t really offer anything new. Rebooting every WAP ends up being a very time consuming process. It’s awful. And since you have no control over when this issue surfaces and can’t put any safeguards in place, I get calls about it at various points of the day almost every day.
    Supposedly the most recent firmware update (2.0.6.1) claimed to fix the issue, but it only seemed to make it worse. So now instead of a WAP locking up every day or two, it locks up anywhere between every 15 minutes to 4 hours when in use.
    The firmware was updated and the following issue was fixed in firmware version  2.0.6.1: CSCtx62203—In certain environments and traffic model, the WAP4410N may lockup after some undetermined time. (A protection mechanism was added to guard against sporadic problems with client association that could occur after six to 24 hours.)
    As for troubleshooting, there are no error packets. On access points running firmware 2.0.6.1, these messages appear:

    These log messages appear on both WAP4410N-A V02 and WAP4410N-E V02 devices.
    I noticed that when the “beacon stuck” message appears, wireless traffic locked up 10-15 minutes prior to the message’s appearance in the log, and the SSID drops for 4-6 minutes after the message appears.
    Is there anything that can be done to address the issue?

    1) LAN port speed doesn't appear to have any effect
    2) Forcing a connection type doesn't seem to have any effect. This is also rather impractical.
    3) I don't have that option (though there is a TKIP/AES mixed option). Either way, I'd rather not have to resort to using a weaker encryption method.
    4) No effect.
    I did manage to find some information about the error message (older versions of firmware didn't even offer that clue).
    http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Advanced_wireless_settings#Beacon_Interval
    I ended up increasing the beacon interval from 100ms to 500ms under Wireless > Advanced Settings.
    The wifi analyzer app on android seems to keep dropping the SSID when the beacon interval is set that high, so I might have to adjust it to find a good balance.
    However, while it was set to 500ms, none of the access points went down for two days.
    [edit]: I reduced the beacon interval incrementally down to 300ms. It started locking up at 250ms.

  • Airport no longer working after firmware update

    Before i get to my question, i think that it is necessary to give a bit of background as to why i have set my network up the way i have.
    I recently moved in with my girlfriend and brought my broadband package with me as i would have to pay a fee to cancel my contract within the contract period.
    This would be all well and good except that in the new location, the service provider can only supply broadband via an ADSL phone line (provided by a seperate telephone company) furthermore they (Virgin Media - i'm gonna name names) provide a cheap USB only modem - which in turn is only compatible with PPC Macs.
    Fine for me, but not so great for my girlfriend who has an Intel Mac Mini and not so great for my new Airport Extreme which of course requires a modem with an ethernet connection.
    Bearing in mind that it's just after Christmas and i can't afford to just run out and buy an ethernet modem or change my ISP - i thought that i would try something out.
    With the USB modem connected to my old PPC G4 i then connected the ethernet cable (that i had connecting our two Macs allowing them to share the internet connection) - from my G4 to the WAN port on the Airport...
    Now i'm a real networking newbie so i was a little suprised when suddenly and effortlessly i had created a wireless network that the Mac Mini and our iPod Touches could see and use. I set up security etc and all was well and good...for two days.
    Then Airport received a firmware update and now it doesn't work and resetting the Airport doesn't help.
    So now i have to get my hands dirty and like i say, i know jack about networks or the terminology.
    With this configuration - and obviously we know that it can work (somehow!)
    should i be in bridge mode or sharing a single IP address? and just how am i connecting to the internet. Static IP address/DHCP - PPPoE? I know what these abbreviations stand for but i don't know what they mean.
    In the course of 'playing around' with the settings i have seen a message saying that Airport has an invalid I.P. address - why is it invalid and is that only because of something that i have changed or is that the route of the problem?
    All the machines can see each other and the only clue i can provide is this log extract.

    I'm hoping that some networking guru is reading this and can provide me with a few pointers.
    Can anyone help? I've been struggling with this for days now.
    Thanks in advance.
    Steve.

    Your setup is convoluted, but it should work. A few comments:
    1. The base station should be configured to get an IP address using DHCP, which it will get from your PPC which (with internet connection sharing turned on) is now acting as a DHCP server.
    2. The base station should be configured in bridge mode, since your PPC (with intenet connection sharing turned on) is now acting as a router.
    3. I suggest you should turn off the network firewall on the PPC as long as your are running this sort of setup. Not ideal, but it will prevent all sorts of connectivity problems between the internet and everything downstream of your PPC's ethernet port.

  • Seagate external drive not recognized since firmware update

    I've looked through the posts here and haven't found this issue addressed specifically, so here goes. Any help will be appreciated.
    I ran the firmware update on my MacBook Pro the other day, and everything has been normal since, except when I went to switch on my Seagate external HD - which I use as a backup drive - this morning. The mac doesn't see it at all.
    Brought the drive into the office this morning and the iMac here, which hasn't been updated in at least 6 months, sees the Seagate right away.
    I haven't upgraded to Leopard, though I have it, becuase I'm in the middle of a project and don't want any trouble with ProTools. In fact, I hadn't been making any updates at all, but in a moment of weakness ran the firmware update!
    Thanks in advance.

  • Airport extreme firmware update screwed up my IP sharing and internet

    I am having all the same problems -
    1) I upgraded to the 7.1 firmware
    2) I got the 'double NAT' error, but no problems connecting to the internet
    3) When I turned the bridge mode to off, I lost my internet, so I
    4) Tried to turn the bridge mode back to Share an IP address, but got an error about IP addresses.
    5) I went into Setup - the network port mapping tab - and unchecked and then re-checked the Airport button, so now I have internet access, but only at one computer, and if my computer is functional, my VOIP modem is not (or vice versa)!
    6) when I tried going back into "Share an IP address", I got the same error about the beginning and end DHCP conflicting with my WAN.
    (If it helps to know, I have two AEBS - one is set up as the Main WDS station, and the other Participates in that WDS)
    Now I'm afraid to touch anything!!

    I have installed the new AirPort Extreme firmware update (7.4.1) and with airport disk utility i want to connect automatically my hard drive related to the airport (wifi mode) , the connexion was working well before that update and now i have an error message (unknown user or wrong password error -36 ...) when the disk tries to connect automatically.
    I would like to rollback to the 7.3.2 firmware version but there is no way to find it on internet (or on apple download) even if i change rollback airport utility to version 5.4.1: the binary firmware 7.3.2 disapeared from my mac and i can only choose 7.4.1 binary file ...
    Do anyone have the same problem ?I you found how to fix it please answer my post (thanks)
    Ok, here's how you actually do the downgrade - here's what Apple says, not exactly right - I would add that you HAVE to go to the MENU, choose BASE STATION, then hold down the Option key while pressing UPLOAD FIRMWARE, this will get you to a window that has the dropdown with older versions....the other versions were not available to me any other way.
    {quote}If I have a computer or device that does not work well with an AWD with the latest update, how can I install previous (earlier) versions of firmware?
    1. Open AirPort Utility.
    2. From the AirPort Utility menu, hold the Option key (Control key in Windows XP and Vista) and choose Check for Updates....
    3. Select the specific firmware version you require.
    4. Click Download.
    5. Select your base station and choose Manual Setup from the Base Station menu, or double-click on the AWD icon.
    6. Choose Base Station > Upload Firmware.
    7. Select a firmware version and click OK.{/quote}
