Wrv54g: firmware upgrade question

Hi
At the office I have an old wrv54g hardware rev. 02 running 2.37EU firmware.
For years I have been able to use QuickVPN to connect to the office network when working from home. I'm using QuickVPN 1.0.39 (I know it's ancient, but it works) from my laptop running WinXP SP1/2/3. However now I need to establish connections from both Vista and Win7 - and have downloaded the latest QuickVPN client (1.4.1.2). But any attempts to establish connections fails. So I thought that I might try to update the firmware on the wrv54g - but the 2.37EU firmware is - to the best of my knowledge - the most recent EU-firmware.
My question is: Are there any differences - hardwarewise - between the US and EU model of the wrv54g that prevents me from flashing the unit with the 2.39.2e firmware (the latest fw the last time I checked). Will I "brick" it or can I just go ahead?

Hi and welcome to the Cisco Home Community!
The WRV54G is now being handled by the Cisco Small Business Support Community.

Firmware upgrade question about Photosmart 7520

Hello,
I just got my new printer today from HP and it is a HP Photosmart 7520 which is great.
I was looking online and i noticed there is a firmware update in the support section.
My question is my printer has firmware ELM1CN1409AR and on the HP site the firmware there is ELM1CN1320AR. Is my firmware the most current or the one shown on HP support site?
If my firmware is older should I update the firmware or just leave things as is?
I am not having any issues with the printer as of now, but I always check all drivers and firmware of all my products.
Thanks in Advance
Fred
This question was solved.
View Solution.

as long as you are connected to a computer via USB...I doubt that you will experience the problems that are being SIGNIFICANTLY reported regarding the 7520.
As you saw in my post that you referenced, with a USB connection, the intermittant scanning/printing problem did not occur.
Also, please see my entry in the following post regarding the current firmware version vs what HP has posted on their support page:
http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-Networking-and-Wireless/7520-won-t-stay-connected/td-p/3954900
the version currently installed in your printer, ELM1CN1409AR, is the latest (as of the date of this post) that any 7520 printer connected to a router will be automatically updated to.
however, please note that for those of us using a wifi connection from the printer to a router, firmware version ELM1CN1409AR has not solved the intermittant connectivity problems.

Firmware upgrade question for 300 series switches

Hi-
I have a customer that is investigating a strategy and solution for centralized firmware management of the 300 series switches. They have found an issue in the lab where they were trying to roll back the firmware to a previous version They can not roll back to the previous firmware version, which is desirable in the case of finding an issue in the new firmware that causes them to have need to rollback to a known working version.
We have read in the cisco 300 switch admin guide that there are two images (active and inactive) and that a new downloaded firmware always replaces the inactive image and is active until explicitly set. The admin guide does not mention inability to make an older firmware image as active image when the switch has previously run on a new release firmware image. My customer's engineers testing have informed me that an older image can not be made active after a newer image has booted. Can you please verify if this if a fallback is supposed to work as it is causing a lot of concern-
Thanks-
Jena

WRT160Nv2 questions - no firmware upgrades?

I just bought a WRT160Nv2 today, and although setting it up was very easy and quick..there's a couple of things I'm curious about...
a) When I look for firmware upgrades, it only shows Version 1 and 3...not 2..why is that?? (I have version 2.0.02 build 008 Jul 27, 2008)
b) Why is there no Wide-40MHz option in the Radio Band even though the 'help' clearly mentions it?? Is this a reason why I don't really notice a big difference in the range improvement over my old router? (Belkin 54g + another Belkin 54g router configured as AP) I have currently set the mode to MIXED, Radio Band to Standard 20MHz, and Standard channel on AUTO.
Will the Wide Channel only apply if I have Wireless-N devices on the network?
Oh and I have a follow-up 3rd question:
c) I have a WiFi capable mobile phone (Nokia E65) which has 802.11b capability, and so far I have not been able to get it to work with the new router. I currently have a 11b device (the phone I mentioned), 2-3 11g devices, and I've just bought a Wireless-N adapter (WUSB600N) which I'll be using on a desktop...I'm just wondering what will happen when all three types of devices are going to be used, and if they'll all be able to work together without detriment to another (I guess mainly if the 11b phone will be usable when the N-device is active)
Message Edited by deep_schismic on 05-27-2009 02:20 PM

Yes, your router does not have a Wide-40MHz option in the Radio Band...You should try to change the Standard Channel to 1/9/11 and see the difference, also you can change the Beacon Interval to 75, Fragmentation Threshold to 2304 and RTS Threshold to 2304 under Advanced Wireless Settings to improve wireless range...

WRV54G - error loading firmware upgrade (v2.392)

I went to upgrade the firmware on my WRV54G -
Downloaded the latest firmware -- v2.392 (5MB file - name WRV54G_R2_39_2_02082006)
In the router - I go to the Administration / Config Mgmt page - and tried to load the firmware upgrade and I get a blank browser screen with the following error message
'413 Request Entity Too Large'
'The length is too large'
Has someone also found this? Is there a simple fix?

Hi… I think there was some error while downloading this file. Try downloading it again. Reset this router for 1 min and try to upgrade the firmware again. Let me know if you can upgrade it.

Firmware Upgrade now no file sharing

I recently installed a firmware upgrade on my E3000 to firmware version 1.0.04.build 6. Since the upgrade I am unable to see any of my files on my network computer which is running windows 7. Before everything was fine and I could stream to my dvd players and dish receivers. I've tried everything I can think of to fix this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Mr. Bernard,
Thank you for your question.
However, the Small Business Support Community is limited to Cisco Small Business Products and the E3000 is not a Cisco Small Business Product.

Firmware upgrade?? Printing Issues?? HP Designjet Z6100ps

I have a Designjet purchase as a demo in 1/2008. The last firmware upgrade that is currently installed is GG-GG_9.0.0.4. I am having printing issues where it prints about 4" of my prints from Apogee Printdrive (which comes from a windows computer) and then wants a restart with the firmware error code. Prints from the MAC are fine and will go straight thru. I have tried multiple firmware upgrades (the latest is GG-GG_11_00_00-2_mvl40-x86-opt_B.dmg) and it is all invalid. After a week of trial and error and trying different upgrades from different computers I am at my whits end. We print to the this printer presslayouts to look at before plating for press. Printing Banners from the MAC is no problem. Anyone have any suggestions. And of course, warranty and service is nill.

I am linking you to the the Designjet forums below. Please just repost your question their it will have better chance of getting answered.

Firmware upgrade 1.3.0.62 -- 1.3.5.58 (SG 300-28P)

Should i be concerned doing the firmware upgrade remotely? I.e. remote to a local workstation and connecting to SG 300-28P from that workstation over LAN and doing firmware upgrade using WebGUI (Google Chrome)?
I've done the multiple upgrades on these switches this way and never had an issue.
However, Release Notes for 1.3.5.58 have some notice regarding boot image and I am concerned that configuration can be lost after the upgrade and if this is the case I'd be screwed since I won't be able to get on the switch to load the custom config after the fact.
Anyone who's done this upgrade please report if your configuration settings were left in place after the upgrade to 1.3.5.58.

Cameron hi,
Interesting input about loss of VLAN configuration while upgrading version. Is this the 1st time you see this issue, or does it happen also during regular reload of the switch?
Also - some question which can may provide additonal informaiton on issue (if you can provide these):
1) Did the issue happen on a port connected to another switch (an uplink port)? - If so what is the neigbor switch type?
2) would it be possible for you to to provide running and startup config before and after reload (of course without security sensative details).
3) Can you provide outputs of show CDP neighbors (detail) before and after reboot?
Thanks

This is part of the message since you cannot post such a long message in posting.
This should show how lost you might be with your warranty. If you install the Firmware Upgrade .8.02 your player might be useless. There is no way to make it work again. Not really. If you understand what Creative seems not to do. So dear user - buy a new player. If you want to know what the solution is to make your player work again post here. If there are enough postings I will explain it here. Too sad that Creative does not do it. It is their job not mine... But again - I am not talking about a problem what is nice to have it solved. I am talking about a player that does not work anymore. If you do not want to wait for my solution just send your player for repair - it was not your fault that it does not work anymore...
This story with the great support was a test of Creative and will be used in a review. So be not surprised to find it somewhere else.
Here the Creative support story. The first mail is at the bottom. I had to make part and part 2 since you cannot post such a long message here.

I just wanted to test the support at Creative. The problem is real and forces owners of your players to buy a new one since their playes get useless after the upgrade. Not only that Creative puts a faulty upgrade on their homepage - their support is good for nothing. But this was a test of the Creative support. I hardly can believe that Creative is not in the position to solve a very simple problem caused by Creative - what has severe consequences for their customers.

Phone Firmware upgrade Startegy for 9.1 -- 10.5 migration

Hello,
We are planning our migration from CUCM 9.1 to 10.5.
I want to do a phone firmware upgrade before upgrading the cluster, to minimize phone upgrades. Planning to use PFD (Peer File) for this.
My question is, what would be the best strategy to upgrade the firmware?
I am not sure if the current load in 9.1 will be supported by 10.5, and if 10.5 device pack/load is installed on 9.1, would 9.1 support it.
So should I upload the 10.5 pack on 9.1 and upgrade the phones in groups, or would 10.5 support it.
The other thing is, I just want to confirm, after a cluster reboot/version switch (in upgrade), would the phones restart and try to upgrade or would only try to connect to available CUCM.
The compatibility Matrix is a bit confusing.
Thanks,
AK.

Thanks for the reply guys.
I DID try to upload the 10.5 pack in CUCM 9.1, but it rejected it. so no way it will do that.For the file this is what I understand:
1- COP files: contain script to upgrade the firmware
2- loads files: contains the actual firmware
So would a good strategy be:
-Register all phones on Sub first. Keep Sub as Primary.
-Upgrade Publisher.
-Register a group of phones on Upgraded publisher (by making changes on PUB), by making Pub primary for them.
-the Phone group Upgrades the firmware
-Group of Phone gets upgraded. move to next group.
-After all Phones are upgraded, upgrade the sub.
If there is a better way to do it, please let me know. The biggest challenge we have is to get all 3000 phones migrated in 1 night.
Thanks guys. Appreciate it!

WLC Firmware upgrade

I am working on a firmware upgrade on WLC 5508 and WLC 2100 from 7.2.111.3 to 7.4.121. I have 10 forign controllers and 2 anchor controllers. My question are:
(1) Should I upgrade the forign controllers first or anchor controllers first?
(2) Should I or do I need to upgrade Cisco NCS, 1.1.1.24, after the WLC firmware upgrade?
(3) SHould I or do I need to upgrade CIsco MSE to latest version?
Thanks,

(1) Should I upgrade the foreign controllers first or anchor controllers first?
Does not matter the order.
Make sure you upgrade the FUS to 1.9.0.0 version as well
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/release/notes/fus_rn_OL-31390-01.html
(2) Should I or do I need to upgrade Cisco NCS, 1.1.1.24, after the WLC firmware upgrade?
Refer the below link (table 4) compatibility matrix, you should have NCS/Prime 1.3.x

Air Port firmware upgrade

I did a software upgrade yesterday having read that it solves some serious security problems, and in the process I also got a firmware upgrade for the AirPort Extreme WIFI card in my MBP.
After the re-boot, my Mac was trying to connect to the 802.11n interface on my Air Port Extreme! This was totally unexpected since I have an older MBP without the 802.11n support - could the firmware upgrade have added it?
Wireless Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x168C, 0x86)
Wireless Card Locale: USA
Wireless Card Firmware Version: 1.3.4
Current Wireless Network: wireless network not available
A more general question is - Where do I find details of each of the software/firmware upgrades and what they include - similar to Micro$oft's KB articles?

There was a thread here a few months ago - I can't find it now - that explained that Apple, in the newer versions of the MacBook Pro, upgraded the AirPort Extreme hardware. the way you could tell the difference between the "old" and "new" hardware was the numbers in parentheses (0x168C, 0x86) following the name. I don't remember which was what, and I can't find the thread, just that mine was NOT the "new" version that was upgraded to 802.11n.
That's why I was excited when the MacBook Pro started to try to authenticate to the 802.11n connection. I didn't have time to investigate further, and won't now for a couple of days, but when I learn more I'll report back here when I do.
I'm guessing from the numbers, that your Mac Mini has the same AirPort hardware, but don't take that as fact

Lenovo Iomega ix4-300d Disk Firmware Upgrade

Hi guys,
Is there a any way to upgrade my Seagate ST2000DM001-9YN164 Firmware from the IX4-300D device?
The Seagate have a firmware upgrade utility, but is a livecd and it is for i686 hardware.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

We do not recommend or see it necessary to update the firmware unless you have firmware CC37 or lower. Is there a particular reason you wanted to upgrade the firmware? These drives should work with our device without needing to update the firmware.
If you want to upgrade the firmware, then you will have to do so manually by taking the hard drives out individually and connecting them to your computer. Seagate has a program called SeaTools (http://www.seagate.com/support/downloads/seatools/) that you should be able to update the firmware with. However, be advised that if you are in warranty and perform the update and the device is damaged, it will void your warranty.

Firmware upgrade on Zen Sl

I would like to install the new firmware on my Zen Sleek to upgrade to 2.0.03.
Unfortunately, both the skinny paper manual, and the more detailed CD-ROM manual don't explain how to do this.
I did try to reset the Sleek by pushing a paperclip into the base and pressing the 'play/pause' button. I never got the option from the player to upgrade the firmware. Instead, it simply went back into the 'now playing mode'. I also downloaded the executable from creative.com that supposedly contained the WMP0 and new Firmware. When I ran this, however, no options appeared to permit a firmware upgrade.

Thanks in advance.

Robert

Basically plug in ur MP3 player. Download the firmware off the internet and double click onit with ur mp3player pluged in. Thats all there is to it.
I own Zen Touch 20gig, Sennheiser MX400
OK, thats what I tried the first time.
a) player plugged in;
b) downloading the upgrade from creative, to wit:
Creative Software Suite for PlaysForSure-enabled Creative Zen Sleek Players (43.87 MB) 9 Sep 05
c) clicking on the icon that was placed on my desktop;
d) answering all questions the upgrade wizard asked as 'yes'
I'll try the process one more time, in case I missed something.
