Hi,
Just received the router and went live yesterday at around 8pm.
Before going live, I set the the wifi properly. At 8pm the router was automatically reset by Vodafone (every setting lost).
Now I can see the firmware is different.
Firmware-Version: 19.2.0307-3261013
Productname: Vodafone Wi-Fi Hub
A previous bug has disapperead but there is as new but even more annoying: the router doesn't let me change anything in the wifi settings, not even the password despite the router itself pop up a message saying "you should change the password".
I'm going to work around this problem with the mobile app... let's see what happens....

BONUS BUG
Now I cannot split the 2 frequencies anymore. 😲
The web interface doesn't allow that from the beginning (I did it before going live because the router had an old firmware), but now I cannot split with the android app as well. 😥
It says "Are you sure you want to split?". Yes! But it's still a single SID.

SURPRISE BUG
I cannot turn off both "Wi-Fi Network" and "Wi-Fi-on/off button" at the GUI because I can only turn off the Wi-Fi using the hardware button and if I touch any Wi-Fi setting on the "General" page it turns the Wi-Fi back on.

I managed to split the 2 frequencies back using Chrome.

It really shouldn't matter what browser you use. I always use Firefox out of preference but I had the same problem with switching the WiFi off via the GUI, button worked O.K.

I doubt @Beth has any firmware , I'm sure she is just parroting what she is told.
She has probably never seen a Vodafone router.

I've been here for a few days and that's enough to understand we are alone with our problems.
Talking about problems... the software of the router is a mess to debug.
About the problem of wifi-->general, when you click on "Apply" the code that runs is this one.
function() { // If bandSteer is enabled 5 GHZ will be read only, at this time values of 2.4 GHZ will be sent in post for 5GHZ function isASCII(str) { return /^[\x00-\x7F]*$/.test(str); } function validateSSID(value) { return isASCII(value) && validateStringLength(1, 32)(value) && !(/<|>/g.test(value)); } var elements = { main_wifi_ssid_24: "#wifiGen-txt-ssid24", main_wifi_ssid_5: "#wifiGen-txt-ssid5", guest_wifi_ssid_24: "#guestGen-txt-ssid24" } var validations = { main_wifi_ssid_24: validateSSID, main_wifi_ssid_5: validateSSID, guest_wifi_ssid_24: validateSSID } $('#wifiGen-btn-cpwd24').attr('disabled', true); $('#wifiGen-btn-cpwd5').attr('disabled', true); $('#guestGen-btn-cpwd24').attr('disabled', true); if (!validateElements(elements, validations)) { $("#errMsg").removeClass("hide"); return false; } if ((superWiFi == "passive+") && (splitButton != "")) { window.location.reload() } $("#Overview, #Internet, #WiFi, #Sharing, #Settings, #StatusSupport, #power-saving-mode, #wifi-general, #wps, #mac-filter, #settings, #wifigeneral_form, #wifi-network-button, #wifi-hardware-button, #wifi-split-ssid").prop("disabled", true); splitmergeApply(); }
Trying to understand why only in FF pops up the error "Your changes have not been applied", I've tested any single function.
isASCII(str) --> True so no problem
validateSSID(value) --> True so no problem
This piece of code I though was the culprit
if (!validateElements(elements, validations)) { $("#errMsg").removeClass("hide"); }
instead this is connected to this message:
"SSID name shouldn't be more than 32 characters and should not contain any special characters."
that is not what we are looking for.
There should be a piece of JS code calling the id "save-err-msg", that is the only html showing such message
<p class="language-string success-info" id="save-err-msg">Your changes have not been updated</p>
but I can't find it anywhere (at least the FF debugger can't find it in any js file). Maybe it's not referenced by id but as a class? If someone has same spare time...
Understanding why such error comes out could allow us to work around the problem.
