Hi all,
Trying upgrade firmware to 3.9.3.1 and it’s no go, stating it’s not a valid firmware.
Anyone else?

I don't have the router but just looked at the download and release notes.

The notes say this firmware basically does nothing , no new feature/fixes or anything else so it would appear to be pointless.
There is no .rst file either.

On the .com website the release notes differ

Improvement
 Improved: Make system uptime preciser even after a long period of time.
 Improved: Add the Brute Force Protection support for VPN on Firewall>>Defense Setup.  Corrected: An issue of memory leakage and buffer overwrite.
 Corrected: A security issue regarding private keys used in the RSA certificate.
 Corrected: A stability issue related to VPN (including L2TP buffer stack overflow).

So looks as tho they have done something.
I have a support request in with Draytek but not received a reply as yet.

Interesting, I tried that and chrome too with the same results. I will see what support says, I’d hate to brick it on day one. :)

I just tried Chrome for the third time and it worked, so it was either that or they updated the file overnight. Either way problem solved. :)

Cheers
