Uh-Oh the firmware police are out! Lol! It says right on the D-Link website....

"NOTE:  To ensure your product has the latest security updates and operates at optimal performance, it is recommended you update your product to the latest firmware after installation and to periodically check for new firmware releases. Updates can be found by searching your model name at support.dlink.com  or though the mydlink mobile applications for mydlink registered devices. Customers are also notified of firmware updates via the mydlink.com portal."

It's a firmware update not open heart surgery ;). I just installed it keep you posted!

Thanks for posting the firmware for the models that have the HNAP flaw. However, posting this with the firmware updates is very bad advice:

-----------
NOTE: if your DIR-880L router is working with out any issues, it's recommended to keep the current version of FW that is loaded unless your are effected by one of the fixes. Use at your own risk.

IF IT WORKS, DON'T FIX IT!!!  ::)
-----------

A casual user will think that because they haven't experienced any problems they should ignore the security and bug fixes. If a router is compromised, EVERY DEVICE ON THE NETWORK is compromised! A DNS redirect or UPnP compromise and a bad actor can turn a network inside out!

Remove it!

Yep is sure is, just FW.  :o

And if users read the fine print dealing with this FW update, it's just the removal of the HNAP code. The feature was disabled by default in prior builds.  ::)

I've got it loaded, just haven't had time to test it out yet.

Let us know how it works for you and if you find any new items. ;)

I installed 1.08 Build 04 and works fine so far; it still does not enable Dynamic DNS Manual option which I wanted to use with dnsomatic.com ; I did get the Dlink Syslog feature to work using Syslog Watcher V4; Syslog entries shows the Dynamic DNS does work for dlinkddns and dyndns options but the manual option which I need does not work; the syslog entries show authentication attempts for dlinkddns and dyndns when they are selected and saved; but no attempt at connection shows in the syslog when the "manual" option is selected and saved.  It would be nice if a listed feature works or some message to indicate something goes to the syslog - otherwise why show it as an option?

I presume that the 880L may not support a manual or custom any DDNS service option. Only the presets for dlink and dyn.

You may want to contact D-Link support and ask them if they could add the custom DDNS option.

Yeah, now you mention it : The Clients list now displays distiction between cable and wireless connected and even between 2.4 and 5g clients. There's also a signal strength indicator. Nice : The little things that make you feeling better :-).
Can I insert a picture and how? Cannot find it.

And : Time is ok now; before time was always one hour ahead.

Hello everyone!

I'd like to know where if you have problem on DHCP leasing duration.
The image shows incoherent duration from web admin page and
client's IP connection details.  I didn't notice if this occurred only
on this version.   I've checked other PCs as well and after renewing
connection & flushing DNS, I'm getting the unexpected result.

Or my math gone wrong :)

I've attached an image for your reference.   What could be wrong?

Are you using v1.08 ?

Test with a different router to see if the same thing happens?

Yup, I'm using the same version/build.  Actually from factory reset, I was getting the
correct leased period for all connected devices.  But after making modification from
QOS, etc., I'm always getting the said problem.

     Is there a conflict of 880L setting or issues with my bridged DSL modem (Prolink H5004NK)
     Does this problem isolated to my unit only?

Thanks in advance and Happy New Year!!!

So what are you doing to QoS or etc that seems to make this happen?
I presume that if your ISP modem is fully bridged that the DHCP server on it should be fully disabled and should not be interfering.

Do you see this if you set a IP address reservation for a PC?

Is this version 1.08 will work on HW version A2 ?
On the link page I only see HW version A1 firmware.

I believe so...

If something happens you can revert to v1.07.

Good day to all.   Sorry for the late reply.

The ISP modem is fully bridged and DHCP is disabled.   As for the QOS, just set the cameras and NVR in the highest priority.  For the IP reservation, I set it but to no avail.   All connected ate getting fixed end date as indicated in my ipconfig result.  Let's say if DHCP is  enabled on ISP modem where the WAN side of DIR-880L is connected, will it affect the leasing period considering different subnet with 255.255.255.0 on both WiFi router and modem?  Thanks.

Regardless of lease time expiration, if the reservation is set, the IP address will be set and assigned to the reserved device.

Enabling DHCP on the ISP modem is only for devices connected to the modem and doesn't effect whats connected to the 880L.

Good day,

I believe that as you said, it is working so why complain.   Maybe that it is just that I'd like to report to their developers, who 'are reading" this forum that there might be problem, specially those devices assigned as guest client with limited connection.

Reservation of IP is being done but limited numbers would affect only in the lease.   Non reserved devices can enjoy longer connection :)

I didn't say "it is working so why complain."

Even if you don't use a reservation, there will be a connection and even if the lease runs out, there should be a disconnection, just the internal server will re-apply the IP address if the device is still connected and online. Users will not notice any connection with this.

I recommend that you phone contact your regional D-Link support office and ask for help and information regarding this. We find that phone contact has better immediate results over using email. D-Links support team reviews items when they are made aware of it by there users.

Any one seeing slow device window behavior or router UI behavior on v1.08WW? When enabling a reservation or just opening the device window and then closing it?
Also not being able to set QOS settings after a long period of time with out doing anything to the routers UI and configuration?
