Hi guys,

have any of you had need to use the cli interface of a dlink router??

I followed the advice of the dlink techo's and tried to flash the firmware
to the latest version to fix some bugs.

The update nearly went though, but at about 98%, the software update timed
out, and disconnected.. leaving me with nothing useful on my eeprom. the
inbuild network interface has no IP and can't be accessed.. serial is all I
have.

Now the dlink has a serial connection, so I plugged that in and connected
via telnet to com1 no probs...

I have the choice of xmodem or tftp in the cli interface to get the new
image loaded..

problem is, I have no idea how to do this without a ethernet connection..
how does one upload/download from the router via a serial connection??

has anyone done this before??

any tips would be greatly appreciated.

at present, I had to go back to my ADSL modem to get back online...
