WN3000RPv3 Username login failure after firmware update
I use two Wifi Range Ext as Access points on my network. They each have their own Static IP. It was working fine, and I saw there is a firmware update (V.xxx.50 I think) after the update, routers...
A new firmware version has released to fix the problem:
This the release notes:
- Fixed the bug where if the username has less than 8 characters, it cannot login successfully.
- Updated firmware upgrading function.
but if the user name is not accepted because "admin" is shorter than 8 characters, how do I get to update the firmware? Via telnet?
Has anyone solved by doing a reset to the default settings?
The problem, in my case, occurred after the update to 1.0.2.52.
