[Help Me] DI-624 H/W ver C3 Questions

D-Link Router DI-624 ver C3 with Firmware 2.50 -
Q1. is Firmware ver. 2.76 applicable as an upgrade?

Q2. If so, is ver. 2.76 for H/W ver 'C' from D-Link site ... appropriate ?

Q3. Under Tools .... Time ..... I have selected Manual & Computer Clock as it seems that Automatic doesn't work ... Time is stuck in April x 2002. In Manual, I can get current month/day/time .... but can only set the year to 2012 or lower... no 2013 or above ....

Verified by checking Log under Status .... Oh, and even with Manual Time setting .... every so often it resets to April x 2002 ...

Comments/solutions/HELP greatly appreciated.

What region are you located?

Where are you seeing v2.76? What D-Link site is this located at?

There are known issues with Year on some model routers however Most DI series routers have been phased out and no longer developed on. If you need correct Year and Dates on your router, I recommend getting into a newer DIR series router.

Yes indeed 2.76 was the last firmware available. To my knowledge there has never been a third party firmware. I actually still have an old di-524 c3 that I burned the di-624 firmware. I long ago retired it for a dir-655 which also was retired for a dir-825. I recently retired the dir-825 for an asus RT-AC66R and not looking back at dlink the asus it's awesome. Every time I stepped up with dlink there were issues abundant the asus is smooth. My advice it's time to upgrade from that di-624.

You could try it I presume...again, it may not fix any Year or Date issues...as I don't see any thing mentioned of this. If you choose to try it, I recommend downloading the FW file first, BE WIRED to the LAN port on the back of the router, do a factory reset, use IE or FF browsers only for sending the FW File as Chrome has been know to cause problems and brick routers. After it's sent and the router reboots. Do 1 more Factory reset, then set up from scratch and check the Date. If it's not fixed, then you'll need to find a different router if the DATE is important for you.

Let us know what happens.
