Re: 5260 > 5660

said by buonadomenic:
when I try to load the firmware I get the following error.

Filename: upgrade.img
File could not be downloaded
Command->

It seems that I have setup the server correctly since when I try to load the new 5660.img directly without any hex editing I get the following:
Error: image platform [0x3] expecting [0x5]
File could not be downloaded.

so this tells me that I have setup the server correctly?

I see the same error on both attempts and it makes me think that either you don't have Serv-U setup right or that you should rename the upgrade.img to 5660.img and try again. Both files are in the same C:\5660 folder and that is the home folder for Serv-U, correct?

Try this.... Temporarily rename 5660.img to 5660.new and then rename upgrade.img to 5660.img

Check to see how much memory you have:
»The Unofficial SpeedStream 5260 ---> 5660 FAQ »How do I check how much memory my modem has?

You must have at least 1.5 Megs free.

Make sure you are in Half Duplex mode in the 5260/5660 and the Ethernet card plus that you are directly connected to the 5260/5660.

Unplug the 5260/5660 from the phone line before starting the process again.

I fixed the links in the Forum FAQ below after finding 2 of the 5 missing Firmwares. Make sure you have 2.3.0(7) as the only unaltered Firmware and make sure you flash it as the second flash after the first flash is successful. If you have any 2.2.X Firmwares you should delete them as they are not worth keeping due to the downloads freezing bug among others that were fixed with the release of the 2.3.X Firmwares.

»Efficient Networks Forum FAQ »Is there a list of available 5660 Firmwares?

I'm having a similar problem to bounadomenica. I can ping my machine, but I can't download the hexeditted file.

I think I have Serv-U set up correctly. I renamed the files. How do I tell what my mode is.

BTW, I think I have a small memory 5260.

I'm playing with firmware 2.3.0(7)
