| Re: [Vonage] SIP credentials, RTP300, GPP_K? Thanks, I appreciate your help!
So far it will only get to the point of registering, generating dial tone, busy, etc. but the registration will fail. It might be particular to VSPs such as Voicepulse that use a letter in their username and the Vonage WRTP54G's peculiarity.
I'm hoping that the Linksys release 3.1.17-NA firmware (now available on the Linksys website) will solve this issue, but so far I'm getting a BAD CRC error when trying to update. I don't have a CRC routine here to recalculate the CRC after patching the CYWM->CYWL product ID in the image!
So...until someone can calculate a valid CRC for this patched image, I think I'm stuck at the moment. | |

| Getting a WRTp54G to take 3.1.17-NA... If you have tried to load up the WRTp54G with version 3.1.17-NA firmware from Linksys support and it does not take (says wrong code pattern), have a look at this:
For this project, you will need:
- a copy of wrtp54g_fw_3.1.17_US.img (get it from www.linksys.com) - a good HEX editor - a Linksys WRTp54G device (no, this does NOT work on a WRT54Gp2!) - the ability to access /update.html (you must know the password)
Here's what to do:
Open the wrtp54g_fw_3.1.17_US.img file using your favorite HEX editor.
1. Change HEX offset 23 from 4D to 4C.
2. Change the last four bytes to: AB 3A 49 5D
3. Save your new file.
4. Update the firmware on your WRTp54G (/update.html) to the new firmware.
Very Important!!! Let the firmware upgrade complete!!! Do not close the web browser session! Eventually (1-2 minutes) it will load the login screen of your WRTp54G device. If you interrupt this, you may brick your device!
One last note, you may need to do a factory reset to rid yourself of any left-over params from the former use.. I did not have to do that, so the admin password was retained, along with the router settings. The voice section lost all of the settings, as it loads a different SIP engine (resembles the Linksys PAP2).
The new Admin password is blank (nothing in the password field). This is only needed for the /update.html page on firmware 3.1.17-NA.
Good luck!! | |

Would you be able to post an MD5 for the modded file so people don't screw this one up (myself included).
I'm assuming this one acts like a Sipura/PAP2 vs. 1.00.62-NA? | |

| Re: Getting a WRTp54G to take 3.1.17-NA... Sure, the MD5 for the firmware (after the above mods are done) should be: 611eb9063d2c9c8ff2e34826c1a376e2
It does have a PAP2 SIP module, unlike the 1.00.62 versions.
I was pleased to see it is more stable than the 3.1.3 and older versions we played with in the past... | |

2 edits | This is really, really great. Thank you rcilink!!! Version 3.1.17 is indeed running like a SPA-2002/PAP2 as I just reinitialized the router and then added a "Voicepulse" recommended dial plan for the SPA-2002:
(x#|xx#|*821[2-9]xx[2-9]xxxxxx|*82011x.|*xx|*1xx|[3469]11|0|00|1[2-9]xx[2-9]xxxxxx|011x.|[2-9]xx[2-9]xxxxxx) This string blew the 1.00.62-NA firmware out of the water, but its working just fine in 3.1.17!
I think the Vonage WRTP54G is really open now! :D | |

| WRTP54G Unlocked ---- Thank you guys !! After 1 week of attempts - Success now.
I was successfully able to unlock my Vonage WRTP54G using the firmware upgrade procedure. The cyt software failed to do so. I used the following link and it worked like charm !
I was getting "Invalid Code Pattern" error with 3.1.17-NA firmware from Linksys support. Then I used celiom.googlepages.com/linksys code which got me onto 3.1.17, but No NA.
My router wasn't accepting any user:tivonpw password and I was stuck. Then I did a factory reset using the poke-in button at the back. After that I was able to access update.html and then upgraded the firmware. Now I am on 3.1.17 and life feels good. Configuring VIatalk was a cakewalk.
Next Project is to install astersik on this. ANy easy-2-go guide will be appreciated. | |

| Re: Getting a WRTp54G to take 3.1.17-NA... Rclink,  Please forgive but I am new to all of this and it looks like you are the most knowledgeable individual that helps many We have 3 units of the WRTP which we are trying to get working for a charity group to who now need to change from "V" (no more money) and use a free Asterisk 2.7 pbx switch that we have built for them and works well in local lan location. Spent hours reading the messages I then downloaded the wrtp54g_fw_3.1.17_US.img from celiomartins web site and got the image to load into the wrtp54g using the stock user/tivonpw unit, All of that was GOOD info and the unit now shows 3.1.17, I did a 60 second reload and router is working and voice section now shows SIP and other setting headers and most fields are blank. When I downloaded the wrtp54g_fw_3.1.17_US.img from celiomartins web site it was my impression from reading the messages that the hex code changes where done to that image , Yes/No? Anyway the box is running 3.1.17 but the user/tivonpw password no longer works in trying to do a factory reset or and when I attempt to reload any image , am I hosed? Any material that we can read that will explain the settings in the wrtp as the booklet that was in the box only talks about V system and we need to talk to Asterisk or SIP. We have wrt1.00.62-NAr6,wrtp54g-3.1.20,image availabel Please help! Any information is much appreciated, any one knows of a easy step guide as this will help many

| Re: Getting a WRTp54G to take 3.1.17-NA... loading the 3.1.17 (-NA) version on an old vonage box is an excellent choice, as it will remain unlocked..
when you click the "voice" tab, you should now be taken to a new voice section, with menus that look/feel identical to the Linksys PAP2 unit.
Look to the right of the web page, near top and find admin login and click that. Now you can configure Line 1 to your asterisk box and the other line if needed.
I do not suggest changing firmware again, as it is not needed.
Using 3.1.17, the new "Admin" account password is blank (just put username Admin with no password).
If you need help configuring SIP to your asterisk, look for help on Linksys pap2 and asterisk. | |

| Re: Getting a WRTp54G to take 3.1.17-NA... Rcilink, Thank you for the fast reply. The unit is displaying only version 3.1.17 it is not indicating NA should it be indicating NA? I did not do the Hex changes as messages from celiomartins indicated that he did the changes and then put out the image, is that correct? I located the Ast recipe page that talks about connecting the Linksys PAP2 I will attempt to do so when we have no more users on the pbx later this evening as they are using the Asterisk and I do not want to blow anything, in your reply you indicated that the code was like and feel of a PAP2 will it program the same way? We will use line one for asterisk pbx to provide the remote animal shelters with home office pbx functionality to the small key systems that they no have in place at the remote locations, can you suggest a free voip incoming service that we can program into line 2 and a config for it? What is the story with the 3.1.20 that I see is now out?
Your courtesy and help is greatly appreciated.

2) I couldn't find the wrtp54g_fw_3.1.17_US.img file to download from the linksys support site ... at the WRTP54G page there was no firmware to download, but I found the WRTP54G-NA_fw_3.1.17_US.zip at the WRTP54G-NA page ... will it works with the NA image? If no, from where can I get the original file?

| Re: Getting a WRTp54G to take 3.1.17-NA... That HEXedit software you are using wants to display (at the bottom) the current 'position', not the 'offset' value. The HEXedit software I use will tell me the offset at the bottom of the screen view.
The offset is supposed to be the number of bytes from the first byte. So, 23 bytes from the first byte is the "4D" in that firmware that gets changed to "4C".
Hope this helps you out. | |
