Yes, Just the issue of getting the DSL part of things working now. I’m still none the wiser that the DSL firmware and drivers are missing. I’m now leaning towards that some sort of corruption occurred when updating the firmware after all, knocking out the DSL part. I’m getting an old DSL-AC68U from ebay now. Options are to just convert my broken router into the RT version or maybe do a cfe dump of the ebay one, modify the mac codes and secret number to match my broken router and reflash the cfe. I think I will make sure I know what I’m doing before I attempt that though.
Backing up the .cfe (common firmware environment) is interesting as is re loading it, do you have details on how to do this for the DSL-AC68U?
