DIR-655 FilmWare HELP Starange path ?
« on: October 05, 2010, 09:12:14 AM »
I just bought the Dir-655 A4 & in checking the FW was FW 1.21  
Went to D-Links site & brought down the new FW 134NA I am about to upload this new FW by a wired conection to my Router & on the 1st click theres a msg. some fw reset your router etc. . .
2nd click Do u really want to reprogram the divice with C:\fakepath\dir655A4_FW134NA603.bin

Really ??? that path or (Fake Path) can not be right . . . Can it?
I DL the ziped file from the suport at D-Link Ca & all seamed OK

Tks, Moe

Yes the fakepath is correct. As long as you pointed it to the unzipped .bin file you will be fine.

Thanks so much Davevt31,
it was driving me mad. . .
I cleared the modem & ran 2 other computers off of 1st position on the modem, & after re-downing the FW. file,  both those computers came back too the point of 
C:\fakepath\dir655A4_FW134NA603.bin

I will not ask WHY . . . just when ever I see somthing like this (FakePath) I think maybe there's a NASTY app. running or I've picked up somthing up or one of the kids has gone some where they should not have etc..
Again thank You Dave-v-t-31
