Title: Cant get into router homepage after firmware update
Post by: xco on July 27, 2010, 05:58:12 AM
I recently upgraded my firmware from 1.15 to 1.20 to get the advantage of the shareport feature. The upgrade when smoothly but the new firmware requires captcha at the login screen. This to me was annoying so i changed that but i dont think i rebooted my router. Now when i go to the login screen, no captcha needed is shown but its asking me to enter a captcha  >:(. What should I do now friends?

I thought 1.22 was the latest, maybe try that.

Try clearing your browser, also are you on Google chrome? I had some issues but they got resolved after I cleared my browser. In Chrome you go to option than under the hood and clear browsing data. Post back if you still getting this issue. Also have you tried another browser?

Did you happend to change the routers IP address? If you did to something other than the default 192.169.0.1 and you upgraded, the update changes the IP address back to the default IP address FYI.

I would clear the broswer cache, Try using IE or different broswer if FF doesn't work. Also I would do a full reset on the router to be sure. Let us know what goes.

So i cleared my cache which did nothing so i just pushed the reset button, which got rid of my old configuration which is what i wanted. Once again thanks for the replies

Good to hear. Remember you can save of your configuration to file for use and loading later on.
