Problem with Aztech 305EU DSL router.

thinsitu · 01-21-2006, 05:12 AM

Well i'm such a fool that i mistakenly updated my router but a big mistake happened. my router firmware version is 21.6.9 but i updated it to 21.6.3, now i can't access it through LAN and when i used to i tried to update to 21.6.11 but it says like "cannot update, use file extension .dlf" when my file extention is already .dlf.

Is there any way to reset firmware version or access the router?

thanks in advance for the help.
thanks.

How are you accessing the router? I'd start by doing a factory reset of the router and see if you can connect. If you can't get to the configuration pages, there's not much you're going to be able to do about changing the firmware.

i access my router through LAN. did a reset using the button at the back but no difference at all.

Open a DOS window and type:

IPCONFIG /ALL >C:\RESULT.TXT

Open C:\RESULT.TXT with Notepad and copy/paste the entire results here.

If no wires where disturbed, I'd say you rendered the router inert with the firmware "update". Contact their tech support, because there's nothing we can do for it.
