Question : DSL-300G+ Not responding after firmware upgrade

Hi,

I have a DSL-300G+, the tag on the side describes it as a DSL-300G+/UK V.A2.

I flashed in the new firmware from http://www.dlink.co.uk/pages/tech_support/dsl_modem_overview_ts.asp here, it uploaded just fine, after about a minute the modem said to wait whilst it restarted, which it did.

However, when the admin page tried to reload it "couldn't find the server" - 192.168.0.1 - I figured it was just taking longer to flash the modem than expected. So I left it alone for another 5 minutes before retrying.

However, no joy - I can't reach the admin page and it doesn't appear to be serving up DHCP addresses. If I manually set the local address to 192.168.0.2 I still can reach the modem.

Yet, it appears to be working, reboot it and the normall light sequence flashes, after a moment it appears to establish an ADSL connection and the ethernet light flashes as it should when I send a ping to a random address (although never a response).

What can I do now? The modem has a port on the back labelled "Console" but it's a strange port, a little smaller than an RJ11 - not the Serial port I've heard about from Google.

Any ideas?

Hi wiqbbvknuyv,

Check the manual, maybe the Default IP address is different, so you would have to try reaching another IP-address. If no luck... I'm sorry, but it seems your firmware update went wrong and you will have to send it back for repair... :(
