Actually the US firmware that came with my router (I bought it on Amazon) featured a terrible inteface with some advanced features (i.e. WDS settings, MAC Address filtering, etc.) However wireless was a little bit troublesome with it (that's why I updated it at the first chance).

I don't know how the new US firmware compares to it, but I have to say that I'm more than happy wih the wireless and general performance of the 4.0 EU firmware.

BTW, I think people using Firefox 3 should not have any problems trying to update the router via the web admin by now.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20721180 Mon, 30 Jun 2008 14:26:02 EDT Re: [Help Me] Need Firmware for DSL-2640B http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20700836 bt1999 : Thanks, Seph!!! IE worked perfectly. And this new version is more versatile than the previous one. Although I use a random 63 character WPA2-AES passkey, it's just nice to have MAC filtering, too.

I actually purchased my modem from the UK on ebay. So I don't know if there are any differences when compared to modems running the US firmware. But looking at the US manual, the interface looked pretty hideous in comparison to the UK version.

Anyhow, I knew that Firefox had some issues that IE didn't ... but I never thought that it was Firefox that was the problem! Next time something doesn't work in Firefox, I'll know to try another browser.

Again, many thanks! I'm glad that you finally decided to post. I generally don't like to post either, but ever since I changed from Bell to Acanac, I've been posting very frequently on the Acanac Community forums on their site.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20700836 Thu, 26 Jun 2008 03:11:56 EDT Re: [Help Me] Need Firmware for DSL-2640B http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20697173 Seph : Hello,

Long-time reader first time poster here!

I had the same problem (Invalid filename) when trying to update it using Firefox and Opera... BUT, using Internet Explorer was a different history. Apparently it has something to do with Javascript validation in the browsers.

I'm now running firmware ver 4.00 and is more stable than previous versions. BTW, I haven't be able to revert to US firmware versions since I took the decision to use EU firmwares... hope I'm not missing something...

Hope I was helpful!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20697173 Wed, 25 Jun 2008 13:02:10 EDT Re: [Help Me] Need Firmware for DSL-2640B http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20695170 bt1999 : I don't think so. The link is the same one that haygood2 used to get the 3.06b1 version and he was able to flash his modem.

As I mentioned, I tried to use the same file and it still says it is not a valid name.

Not sure what the problem is and the model I have is a UK version. Oh well ... the MAC filtering isn't really needed especially since I find that the range is very limited. I might just continue to use a LAN connection.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20695170 Wed, 25 Jun 2008 01:39:42 EDT Re: [Help Me] Need Firmware for DSL-2640B http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20689916 anon : Yes, I have the same problem. Not a valid name... weird. Maybe D-Link uploaded an incorrect file...]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20689916 Tue, 24 Jun 2008 07:10:21 EDT Re: [Help Me] Need Firmware for DSL-2640B http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20679985 bt1999 : D-Link released a new firmware (version 4.00) that enables wireless MAC filtering.

»ftp://ftp.dlink.co.uk/dsl_routers_mode···l-2640b/

I downloaded it and unzipped it ... but when I tried to upgrade the firmware, it says to enter in a valid filename. I did not change the name when I unzipped the file. Also, I downloaded the older version 3.06 to test it out and the result was the same.

Has anyone else encountered the same problem?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20679985 Sun, 22 Jun 2008 06:05:36 EDT Re: [Help Me] Need Firmware for DSL-2640B http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20663507 anon : Although, now that I upgraded to the european firmware for the dsl-2640b, I cannot reload the us version of the firmware.

Any Ideas? I have tried the tftp command via telnet to no avail.

This seems to be the original firmware for the US.

Actually if you already set up some wireless MAC policy before updating the firmware, it is probably still kept in the memory of the router.

All the responses are much appreciated.

I used the firmware file that was "EU_DSL-2640B_3.06b1_306063V00_cfe_fs_kernel_wo_fw_lock(0BD9)" (I figured without firmware lock sounded better). I backed up my settings before updating, and after updating just needed to load them to get my internet access back online. The router remembered my router password and WEP settings. Works great and the new interface is much improved.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20127274 Fri, 07 Mar 2008 17:31:30 EDT Re: [Help Me] Need Firmware for DSL-2640B http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20050913 haygood2 : I tried the BT_3.07b5 firmware but it had problems.

New options.
But I'm still stumped :(
Can you please tell me how to enable MAC address filtering so only MAC addresses I enter manually can enter the network.

I can't seem to fathom it. I have WPA enabled and so it's secure that way, but having it acting as a dhcp server and having UPNP enabled makes me paranoid.

Any help would be much appreciated.
