HI all,

I am facing problem with RB500, suddenly stops working. i have tried all options winbox,mac-telnet, Serial cable.

In serial cable using hyper terminal ,i can see that

RouterBoot 1.4 beta

Routerboard 532

hanging.....................

i have tried the routerboard firmware options using x-modem protocol also,but its not working.


I think its a bug :( in routerboard.

WHAT COULD BE CAUSE FOR THAT ERROR??

Anybody can help me out from that problem. Matter is very urgent.

regards,
Kutty

first upgrade the firmware:

then reinstall RouterOS with the latest netinstall from our site

HI,

Thanks for ur reply,

I am not able to send firmware file using X-modem protocol, i am getting Error like (remote Host not responding ) . If i login into the bootloader , then i can change the setup like boot from Ethernet ...., then i can proceed to netinstall.

Here the problem is not able upgrade the firmware file of Routerboard.IS there any alternative steps.......?
