NOTE: The 5667 was discontinued long before Microsoft created Windows Vista or Windows 7 so the USB Software Drivers were only designed for Windows XP and older Operating Systems like Window 2000, Windows Millennium Edition, Windows 98 and Windows 95. There were no further updates to the 5667 USB Drivers. There is no known workaround for USB and if you do load the drivers in a newer Operating System, it is suggested you create a Restore Point first in case the USB Drivers damage Windows, but you can use a 10/100 Multi-Port Switch behind the 5667 to multiply the number of Ethernet Port connections that can be made. The 5667 Router version can then support up to 253 PCs on its Ethernet Port if you provide that many replicated ports using Multi-Port Switches.

Yes, with a little work you can!!

Use Google [»www.google.com/ ] to find either file named 5667BridgeFirmware.zip or 5667BridgeFirmware001.zip and it has the instructions and the Firmware file 5667_Tobago_R3[1][2].1.0.bin inside. This recovery requires a serial console cable. Efficient no longer sells them, so you will have to make one.

»Efficient Networks Forum FAQ »What are the pinouts for the 5667 Serial Console cable?

You will only be able to recover from a failure (Flashing 5667 LEDs) on a Bridge 5667 or update your 5667 Bridge to newer 5667 Bridge Firmware, but at least you will have a working 5667 Bridge again. While this is not the same as Efficient providing you a simpler way to recover your product, at least you'll have something usable. Please note: it does not turn your 5667 into a Router.
