Zain DC112A + AC 810S no hotspot

Hello,
 
i've recently got my hands on a DC112A SKU DC112A-1Z1MES and want to use it with my AC810 SKU AC810A-1TSNDS.
 
 
I've installed the latest firmware on AC810 and 1.0.0.4 on DC112A.
 
However, i can't establish a hotspot connection (error, can't connect to 127.0.0.1) nor get a WAN Link up. 
 
I've read already in the forum the reason might be bcz of the origin of the DC112A is middle east.
Is there a way to flash/reflash the device to the generic firmware? I've already enabled telnet and have access to it.
 
Thank you in advance.
 
Marcus

    Hi snoopy78, 

     

    Welcome to NETGEAR Community!

     

    You cannot load a generic firmware to DC112A (Zain SKU). The DC112A SKU's have specific firmware which are optimized for their respective ISP's.
