New Firmware 1.0.7.8

[gratitude182]

hi,

asus has released a new official firmware 1.0.7.8 (yes really) for the wl-700ge with the source (300 mb). to find on the asus ftp (ftp.asus.com.tw/pub/asus/wireless/wl-700g).

my box is at the moment on repair... maybe somebody could post the differences and maybe some screenshots (if they have modified it to the 1.0.4.6).

thanks

Lolzz checked www.asus.com its not there but on the ftp its there
mm checked the date its released yesterday

Damn ass slow asus ftp
300mb avg speed 23 kb ( this may take a while )


ffff waiting 5 min no just to get the image, that 300mb file is a nice job for the router overnight

The web-if looks the same I can't see any changes.
gonne try the download master and let m download the source(300mb file) to see what's changed under the hood of this monster

Is there telnet access by default?

The problems with the PS3 still exist. After about 40 photos the media server crashed and I have to reboot the brick. So no changes for this problem.

Yep telnet is enabled by default lets hope its only on lan and not on wan ..

I see two files on the ftp server:
GPL_WL700gE_1078.rar
and
WL700gE_1078.rar

What are these files and do i need them both.

thanks b2b for the screenshots and the info...

ok they haven't improved the webui (thats ok)... maybe it's now possible to modify more in the webui... or the torrent files (> 2gb) or the download speed with the downloadmanager is improved....

or asus has only released a "new" firmware because now telnet is enabled ;-)

@woffels: the gpl file is the source....

the other file is the nas file to install on the router...

[back2basic]

Lets hope so
It took a hell of a time before they came with this update
but the version went up from .4.6 to 7.8 so i expect a smoother box now
telnet is only enabled on lan not on wan

[gratitude182]
