Title: DIR-655 firmware update failed
Post by: R234 on November 30, 2014, 02:42:06 PM
I am updating the firmware on my DIR-655 rev B1. It said the operation was successful. I got a blank page. I waited about 15 minutes and nothing happened. The power button was blinking orange. I ended up unplugging it to get back online. I tried resetting but that did not help. I need some advice. Thanks.

What version of FW did you have loaded?


Please follow this for doing any FW updates:

If you can't get into the routers web page, try this:

Where you able to connect to the router and access the recovery page and load the FW file and let it reboot. After you do that and the router reboots, set your PC back to automatic networking and you should be able to get to the routers web page?

No, it said no internet connection. The firmware i had was the NA 2.10? from 2012. I had tried to upload  DIR655B1_FW211NAB07.bin which is what the router wizard said to use. When i plug the router in i loose the connection. I changed cable and ran the wizard on my computer. I also tried running the setup disk.

So after applying the FW. Can you get to the routers web page at 192.168.0.1 at all with a web browser and the PC wire connected to one of the LAN side ports on the router?
