RUTX11 cannot update modem 2

Continued from this thread:

I updated to latest RUTX_R_00.07.07.1 and then did a factory reset.

After that I tried to update modem again and I still get same error.

PS.Why are the topics automatically closed?

Hello,

You can try updating the modem via the dfota command using SSH/CLI.

I find the closing of topics to be unhelpful because it blocks the possibility of adding to pertinent topics. You basically have to start over again whereas leaving them open allows a history to develop and contributions to be added. Also, I will no longer update unless there is something I specifically need and I will try that on a test router for a few weeks minimum.

Hi,

We can upgrade your modem using a file. I will share it with you on a different platform. Instructions for accessing it have been sent to the email you used to register for this forum.

To upgrade the modem using the file, follow these steps:

dfota -f /<filelocation>

If you’re using a Windows PC, you can upload the file to your router using the WinSCP program.

Best regards,

I tried the file I got by you and the terminal reports this:


root@RUTX11:~# dfota -f EG06ELAR04A20M4G.tar.gz 
Preparing for gsm.modem0 update!
Skipping update checking because direct file or link provided
Update script done!

And if I have the router webgui up it will report this banner:

Hi,

There is another way to update a modem, but it should be used with caution. In general, why do you need to update the modem firmware? What issues are you experiencing?

Best Regards,

I cannot even use the modem. My sim card gets detected and then it just gets stuck in a loop where the modem disappears and pops up again and after a while before getting registered on the network it resets again.

I have already fibre internet so the router gets its internet via wan-port but I would like to have mobile network as backup
