Thanks JoëlledeBeer

I had the impression it was official - [Removed]

If you do a whois for this domain: the domain is from Vodafone Romania... so Vodafone is spreading bogus firware ? (as the one from this site does not work)

Hi pbnet,

Although we are under the same global umbrella, each country is run as an seperate entity. We do our own testing as different networks require different properties.

You can see all of our information around firmware here.

Thanks a lot Dave !

Hi,

I understand that the 4.2 upgrade for R212-Z resolved the 'Limited Service' error. Can you send us this firmware upgrade with instructions on how to install it.

Thank you!

[DaveCD]

Hi nicolaelaci,

The system we use to send this out is currently unavailable.

So we can see if there's another option to send this out to you, contact us here

Dave,

I followed the instructions as requested but I was not able to complete the form as it is asking for a valid UK number. My subscription is with Vodafone Romania. The number for my vodafone 4G data line is (removed for security). My client account number is 233797830.

Please can you help us.

Hi Dave,

I too have a contract with Vodafone Romania and I would like to have the 4.2 firmware for the R212-Z.

I would really much apreciate if you could send me the download URL too.

Thanks.

Hi nicolaealaci and pbnet,

You’d need to contact Vodafone Romania about getting the firmware updates sent to your devices.

Thanks,

Simon

As you would have seen from the message, it will take about 48 hours for the eForum Team to respond. Please post the reference number received in the automated reply back here so that the eForum Team can trace your message.  The reference number will look something like this: [#7123456]

[garethdenzil]

I got a response with a link, the link just seems to take me back to the standard vodafone business site and is encouraging me to download the mobile broadband software, not the firmware for the R212;

https://www.business.vodafone.com/site/bus/public/enuk/support/10_productsupport/laptop_connectivity...

The only type of reference in any of the emails is WRT165, not sire this is a reference.

Just spoke to techincal support for an hour and they don't understand what firmware is either, keep trying to get me to doanload the mobile broadband software.

Can anyone help me I am desperate? 

Thanks

[garethdenzil]

JAMES, CAN YOU SEND ME THE NEW FIRMWARE, I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

THANKS

[garethdenzil]

Hi,

Can you send me a copy, I have the same issue and have been trying to get hold of the new firmware on another thread for over a week

Thanks

[garethdenzil]

Can you send this to me please?

Thanks

[drey_p]

Please could you stop posting all over the forum about the firmware you require.  All you are doing is making it difficult to respond to other people's posts and also will be slowing down the response time for yourself and everyone else. 

One of the eForum Team will need to see what else can be done for you and will respond in due course.
