DC112A upgrage Firmware problem

i have a DC112A AIR CARD smart cradle with firmware v1.0.0.18_1.0.60.

version 1.0.0.30 is available at netgear.com support but when i try to install this firmware i have a 'wrong firmware' message.

does anyone had this problem and is there a solution to upgrage with newer firmware ?

thank you.

  • Hi,

     

    The most up to date firmware for the DC112A-100EUS is V1.0.0.18_1.0.60.

     

     

    The versions listed on the Netgear website (v1.0.0.24 and v1.0.0.30) are for a different DC112A SKU variant which is not compatible.

    The version numbers across the two SKU variants are not in alignment and the V1.0.0.18_1.0.60 is actually a newer release than what is posted on the website.

     

    Please use the check for updates feature within the DC112A webUI to confirm if a new update available in future.

     

    I will ask that the website be changed to resolve this confusion.

  • I have seen this too. I tried to upgrade DC112A-100EUS V1.0.0.18_1.0.60 to V1.0.0.30 but it says 'This firmware file is incorrect.....".

        thanks for your reply. In the V1.0.0.18_1.0.60 firmware there is not the 'Facebook WiFi Guest Network' as it is presented in the user guide downloaded from the website. It would be a great functionality for us. Perhaps in a future release...
