Netduma Liam 177 Posted February 16 Hey all, hope you’re doing well. Here’s the latest firmware update for the R2 – 3.0.205 (Sounds great, right?) Nothing huge - but it welcomes several stability, security and general cosmetic improvements to your R2. We recommend you make the upgrade and do a full factory reset afterwards, just to make sure you're starting from a clean slate! You can go ahead and download it here:https://www.dropbox.com/s/49gt1wxva9rxame/DumaOS-R2-3.0.205.sig?dl=0 Those that have an R2 on pre-order, rest assured that it will come with this latest firmware pre-installed - if you have any issues or queries, just give us a shout! For the techies amongst you, here's a more detailed change log: System-wide GUI improvements to both cosmetics and Security Increased DHCP cache size to 10000, stopping DHCP from being filled by 1500 requests Improved Traffic Prioritisation for wireless devices Fixed occasional issue where IPv6 devices weren't assigned DHCP IPs DumaOS webserver fixes for improving operating smoothness of GUI Improved DPI detection services Improved Bandwidth Allocation backend 9 2 SETi-D, PharmDawgg, Netduma Lew and 8 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DLinn 0 Posted February 17 I'm looking to finally update my firmware on the R2. With the firmware update will I lose my settings? Do I just click update? I downloaded the most recent firmware. Do you always have to do a factory reset after the update? With the factory reset won't I lose my settings? Sorry for so many questions, I just don't have the time to have the internet down let alone mess with the router. The main issue is that the I lose ethernet connection roughly once a week and have to just remove power from the R2. I'm hoping the firmware update fixes this issue. Thank you, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you, Just upgrading you won't lose your settings no. Access the interface, click the 3 dots in the top right hand corner, go to firmware update then upload the file, click update. You don't HAVE to but it is recommended and that would wipe your settings. Reason we suggest it is because doing so removes old low level code from the previous firmware which could cause issues on the new one. Reports so far have been good!

You can factory reset from the same menu - the default interface details are admin/password - the default WiFi details will be the router serial number for the password. It should do yes but if you encounter any issues i would suggest a factory reset first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SETi-D 27 Posted February 17 (edited) Hi. First i would like to say thank you for the update. I have a couple of screen shots while setting up which i need some clarification on please. One is a problem i seem to have had with the wifi but after changing the channel width my devices connected. 20MGHZ and 40MGZ i would have preferred to leave these on automatic but the wifi would not let anything connect. Next screen shot is the wan setting i have applied to TP for my XBOX witch is connected via lan cable is this setting correct? Again thank you for the update and your time to iron out the minor settings. 🤛 Ps love the new advanced congestion control option. 20 Edited February 17 by SETi-D more Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you switch it back to automatic now they're connected does it work. TP shouldn't ask you that question for wired devices, we'll fix that but it won't negatively impact you by selecting those options so they're fine. Great to hear that! 1 SETi-D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I upgraded then GUI reset then after initial set up i done a pin hole reset just to be certain. Only at that point did i start to adjust my settings. i dont know if i go back to auto. the reason is i have a particular item my kids tv that hates to connect and is work at mo so i dont want to change it. Spent many hours trying to sort the tv out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's fair enough, if you're happy with how it is performing now then don't worry about it, we can take a look and I'm sure other users will post if they notice the same problem. 1 SETi-D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
