VMG1312-B10A: Software
Software History
Software on the ZyXEL web site may well be older than the version that we are using. Since we started using these routers we have report various bug reports and have had software updates from ZyXEL. Here are the details regarding software releases: (Latest first)
| Date | Version | Live? | Download | Information |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2015-06 | V1.00(AAJZ6)C1 (Release 6) | .zip | This release does not fix any of the bugs that we have reported, for this reason we are not making this release available via our Control Pages, and we await Release 7 for which we have been told by ZyXEL: "The scope for AAJZ7 is already in discussion and we are pushing to get as many of A&A’s open tickets in to it" | |
| 2015-04 | V1.00(AAJZ.5)C0 (Release 5) | X | .zip | Fixes (among other things) the port 1 negotiation problems that we reported. As of 2015-05 routers are provided with this version applied. Release notes are in the .zip file |

Software Upgrades
The configuration file that we generate for your line will be based upon the latest software version. This means that if a router is running older software it will need to be upgraded before a new configuration can be sent.
Control Page Options
The control page will show if the current software version on the router and if it is up to date or not:
If there is a new software version available then it can be upgraded:
Upgrading when in Bridge mode
When in bridge mode the ZyXEL router will not have access to the internet itself, and so won't have a way to upgrade in this state. To upgrade you need to reset the router by holding in the reset button. This then reverts the config back to our default, it will then log in, upgrade, then log in again and will get a new config sent to it. At that point it will be back to Bridge mode running latest software.
