Title: Firmware for DWR-921 rev C?
Post by: torro79 on December 17, 2015, 05:41:15 AM

Good day,

I'm located in Europe/Norway and bought a 921 revision C (D-link DWR-921 C1 - firmware v3.00. rev-c)
I don't see any firmware options on the http://www.dlink.com/no/nb/support/product/dwr-921-4g-lte-router (http://www.dlink.com/no/nb/support/product/dwr-921-4g-lte-router) for rev C, just A and B.
Where will any new firmware be published for rev C?

Not known at this time. These models are a EU region router.

Is there a problem with your model router?

Sorry, I didn't see your respons before now.

There are some issues with this model.

1. The predefined AP PIN for the WPS found on bottom of the unit is incorrect. First time login via WIFI will therefor fail. I had to logo via cable and change the PIN.
2. Telnet on port 23 is enabled by default. It should not be.
3. Password for the administration is limited to just 8 characters.
4. A local Syslog is no available, only via Syslog Server (with IP, not DNS).
5. It is not possible to set specific NTP Server - just predefined.

1. The predefined AP PIN for the WPS found on bottom of the unit is incorrect. First time login via WIFI will therefor fail. I had to logo via cable and change the PIN. I recommend using SSID and a defined PW set by you to connect to the wireless.
2. Telnet on port 23 is enabled by default. It should not be. Maybe enabled for a feature on the router. I'd contact Linksys support and ask them about this.
3. Password for the administration is limited to just 8 characters. I'd contact Linksys support and ask them about this.
4. A local Syslog is no available, only via Syslog Server (with IP, not DNS). Some routers only have a feature that points to a off site server like a PC running syslog capture service thus only would need to point to a IP address. Most D-Link routers do not support onboard syslog servers. They may reserve onboard log servers to business class routers.
5. It is not possible to set specific NTP Server - just predefined. Since there's only a few servers, D-Link may have chosen pre defined instead of allowing custom NTP servers on this particular mode.
