Firmware for Plusnet 2704n router

I found my original Plusnet 2704n router the other day in a drawer so thought I'd try it again, just in case I ever need an emergency spare - I usually use a Netgear router for my ADSL line.


The 2704n is connected now and works fine, but it hasn't previously been used in at least three years.

It reports Firmware version "7.275.2_F2704N_Plusnet" which appears to be an older firmware - is there any chance PlusNet could push the latest firmware version to it please, as its probably missed any updates in the last few years?

I'm aware it will reboot, but that's fine at anytime.

Thanks!

Details:
2 - Serial number: N7160781B000883
3 - Firmware version: 7.275.2_F2704N_Plusnet
26 - MAC Address: 90:4d:4a:50:59:0a

Could anyone from Plusnet please send the latest firmware to this 2704n router please?

(Sorry to bump my own post, but its been nearly two weeks!)

Re: Firmware for Plusnet 2704n router

@SammyM Thanks - I saw when you posted that "Service Notice #484821155" was made on my account regarding "A router has been created".

Unfortunately after waiting 5 working days, the firmware is still showing the original 7.275.2_F2704N_Plusnet version. I then tried a "factory reset" on the router and noticed that tr-069 was indeed able to autoconfigure it to my account login details, so its talking okay, but the firmware version didn't change.

Could you have another go at getting the firmware updated please?

Fix

@seebee I've just pushed a firmware update to the device. You should find that it's now on a more recent build.

Re: Firmware for Plusnet 2704n router

Mine is now showing 

Firmware version: 7.275.14_F2704N_Plusnet

I wasn't experiencing any problems on the old firmware - it just hadn't been plugged in for years, so I thought it wouldn't do any harm to get an update. I tend to have the wireless disabled and use another (non-ADSL) router to provide Wi-Fi.

7.275.11 is the latest production build. Nothing between that and the version I pushed to @seebee touches the Wi-Fi configuration.
