Re: DGL-4500 NEW Firmware 1.10 Released

Bud, no..

The MAC address on the ROUTER physically changed. It's a completely invalid MAC address. Therefore, it could not connect.

WAN:
MAC Address : 00:03:64:00:01:23
LAN:
MAC Address : 00:03:64:00:01:24

That's what it said. It did NOT work. Go try it out for yourself.

I can change my address over and over and it connects after I reset my modem. Try putting this MAC Address and see if it works then

Okay, you still aren't getting it...

After upgrading the firmware, it physically changed the MAC address. It's an invalid address, hence why I had to manually change it to what was on the sticker, on the bottom of the router.

It set it to what I had posted up above...

I manually changed it where you can clone the address...in the WAN settings.

Let me know if that finally makes sense to you. And you should try out the firmware also. It might play nicer with PPPoE and FiOS.

I got ya Too much Red wine is talking for me

My Fios isn't PPPOE its DHCP and the only the older installs of Fios have PPPOE as far as I know and all the new installs should be DHCP.

The firmware seems stable, and I get less errors via Wireless with my 3945 ABG, however...just that one quirk with the MAC address is very discerning.

I'm glad it finally made sense to you.

It's even worse now that I can't flash back to an older firmware such as 1.02 or 1.03. It gives me an error and says it's incompatible.

I had the same thing when I tried to go back to an older firmware.
