I need some help from you
my Zyxel EX5601-T0 with original Zyxel (stock) firmware
with regards
thank you frollic it's not clear for me!!!! sorry but would you please show direct link for openwrt img for zyxel ex5601-t0? and for flashing is it via webgui if ex5601-t0? if yes do i hane to install upgrade as well or what? do i have to use ttl usb?
thanks
What's not clear ?
https://firmware-selector.openwrt.org/ and type ex5601.
That's what the "add support" links tell you.
Depends on if you want to stick with the manufacturers flash layout, or not.
I assume the "Openwrt uboot layout" version gives you more flash space for additional sw.
Restoring Zyxels fw is probably easier with the default layout.
Note, I modified the post for the openwrt file DL.
Didn't really read the "add support" links from my earlier post, did you ?
I hope that you understand people's capabilities in the way they understand the, and I hope that you will be patient with me, i can't uploade the img
It's hard to miss, since you already posted a screen shot.
Did any of those entries you were told read, but didn't, tell you to flash anything using the Zyxel webUI ?
i got
"Configuration uploading failed. The selected file contains an illegal Configuration setting."
i access the router via ssh or telnet and i disable firmware version check and model check by running the following commands.
zycli fwidcheck off
zycli modelcheck off
and i reboot device and try to uploade img but without successful
You do realize the steps preceding the commands you ran, weren't optional, right ?
The issue is only a matter of abilities, and I hope you do not get upset with me. In any case, I thank you very much for your patience and assistance to me, and I believe that with regard to my abilities, I will not be able to do that.
thank you frollic
