  • Hi, my CAX30 firmware (modem portion) seems to update on its own even after I downgrade it. Can I stop that. The new firmware isn't working on it.

  • Is it normal for the configuration screen to read version 1.4.11.2 after installing this firmware?

    Seems pretty confusing that the package is 1.4.10.10.

      That’s the firmware version that kept updating my router with, but it doesn’t work for me. So far my custom firmware is working great. Hasn’t updated on me yet

        Not much to go off. 
        What do you mean by "kept updating my router"? 

        Did you manually download and manually apply the FW update with a wired PC and web browser? 

         

        What doesn't work for you with this version of FW loaded?
