After click on load, the browser shows the uploading screen. A popup appears telling that the router will reboot after update. After accepting the popup, the browser shows the uploading screen for some seconds, then the middle frame turns into white only. After another few seconds, a popup appears telling that the update was successfull.
The router did not reboot and the leds did not flash. Internet was available the whole time.
After 2nd try the router crashes. Not pingable anymore.
I downloaded the image from 2 different mirrors.
Is there a possibility to debug it?
Best regards

We noticed an currently unknown error with fwupdate-cgi script. It seems that the web server or the browser closes the connection sometimes and so the script is aborted.
But if the cgi-script fails, you can update the firmware manually. The complete image is uploaded to '/var/fw_update/image.part'. You can flash it manually by executing the following command: 'fwupdate -u /var/fw_update/image.part -r'.
This will flash the image and reboot automatically after successful update.

Hi,
update from 0.3.0_OPENVPN to 0.3.1_OPENVPN fails.

The filesystem looks as follows:
root@BS:~ #df -h
Filesystem Size Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs 2.9M 2.9M 0 100% /
/dev/root 2.9M 2.9M 0 100% /
tmpfs 500.0k 116.0k 384.0k 23% /var
tmpfs 4.0M 3.4M 608.0k 85% /var/fw_update
root@BS:~ #ls -l /var/fw_update/image.part
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3.4M Oct 16 19:34 /var/fw_update/image.part
root@BS:~ #
is there a posibility to run the update manualy on the console?

Okay, the famous last words have been:
root@BS:~ #fwupdate -u /var/fw_update/image.part -r
start flashing image
image size=3561558 byte in 55x64k blocks

Can I throw it away now or is there an emergency bootloader like in fritz!box?
Yes there is, power off the router, push the reset button and hold it while power on until the red led begins to shine.
okay, thank you! Version 0.3.1_OPENVPN is now succesfully installed.
