    You said it's a 2960, it's telling you it's booting 2760 firmware.... wrong firmware?

      No, it is 2760n. I wrote wrong from beginning. My mistake.

          I didn't upgrade its firmware. The router is behaving as I said, it reboots continuously. What would you suggest to solve this?
          Thank you

            Have you tried booting it via TFTP? You need to put it on a network with a TFTP server on 192.168.1.1, serving up the firmware.

              How did you check the capacitors on the board - what test equipment did you use? Did you test the capacitors out of circuit?

              Used to have a coupe of Draytek's - overheating? All mine seemed to be hot enough to broil a steak - I am almost suspicious that your Draytek is running cool! But of course it could be running cool because it wont complete booting so no CPU load to generate heat OR a component (capacitor?) has failed and stopped operation of a portion of the router - or the CPU is not supplying enough voltage so the under-volted router is running cool?

              How old is your router?

                Could be 4 or so years old. Drayteks have, for as long as I've seen them in the wild, suffered from power supply problems. If the power supply is suspect it could easily cause a corrupt firmware, but you should be able to recover it.

                  I solve this problem. The WAN IC is broken with shortcircuit over Vcc+.Now the router is working without WAN ports.Prehaps it was lighting over the ethernet cables. Thank you all for support and ideas.

                      Why does my ISP router hate my "homemade" power supply??
                      by double_DD
                      Hi all,

                      It's gonna be a long intro, so please buckle in, as it's a problem that's been bugging me for several days now. Thanks in advance.

                      So, I have 2 modems/routers, whatever the proper nomenclature is, one from ISP and one mine. I want to power them via USB-C rather then their original mains adapters (for reasons, that are hard to explain to sane people). Both routers come with 12V/3A mains adapters.
                      For this purpose I acquired USB-C charger with 250W and 5 ports, 2 of which can supply max 20V/3A. Since 12V isn't a standard PD voltage option (and to future proof,...

                      Unbricking Vigor AP
                      by madan1
                      Good day.

                      I'm posting this to help other people.

                      If you have a Vigor AP with some kind of a software issue or just with an unknown admin password and disabled reset button, here is how you can flash a fresh firmware.

                      Download the firmware from the vigor's website and extract it somewhere.
                      Download TFTPD64 or other tftp client with file push.
                      Connect to the unit with an ethernet cable and set your client IP address to 192.168.1.10 (just not .1 or .2).
                      Start TFTPD64, go to tftp client tab. Select the server interface with the above IP and...

                      MacBook A1932 & A2337 MDM - Permanent solution?
                      by tommy97
                      Hi,

                      we're getting quite a lot wiped A1932 & A2337 from scrap with MDM (Remote management), we'd like to find permanent solution to remove it without CPU swap as it gets not economical, I found iremove.tools website which offer permanent solution, however if they got shut-down i believe laptops would also get locked? Does anyone have any knowledge about this service & about any other possible method?

                      UPNP, "Standards" and hardware that implements it
                      by EasyGoing1
                      I've been writing a program in Java that is really just a robust front end for the use of GitHiub Gists, providing a nice interface for developers to organize, maintain and access code snippets that we tend to need from time to time in our different projects.

                      One of the features of the program is the ability for people to share their Gists with others who use the program over a LAN or over the Internet. The program just basically serializes a Java class and encrypts it then wraps it into a UDP datastream and sends it over to another user.

                      So I decided to implement UPNP...
