There are quite a number of reasons why you may want to upgrade your hellobox B1.Talk about the fact that your copy is lagging behind in terms of updated features. Or, maybe your hellobox B1 Bluetooth satellite finder has gone dead on you. Also, it may be a situation whereby yours is simply misbehaving(E.g, getting disconnected too frequently, not giving you accurate information) and so on. This article will discuss the how-to of hellobox B1 Bluetooth satellite finder software upgrade.
The hellobox B1 Bluetooth satellite finder software upgrade is as seamless as it can get. Hellobox B1 Bluetooth satellite Finder support recording of streams, but you need to first upgrade the existing firmware.
5.Hellobox B1 DVBFinder will automatically identify the firmware software (auto_update.bin) inside the USB memory to upgrade.When the firmware software is upgrading, the red light will blink in quick succession.
Currently I have a mesh WiFi system in my house, based on the Nighthawk MR60 router, with two satellites (one upstairs and one downstairs). We are using this hub with Cox broadband service off of a Netgear modem. I need both 2.4 and 5 GHz wifi for the various devices in my household.
Last night I was trying to set up a Google Chromecast 3 on a television in our basement. The Chromecast was able to 'see' wifi but the setup failed multiple times. The Nighthawk app management app on my iPhone reported that the MR60 was able to 'see' the Chromecast, but that it had a weak connection. It was then, that I noticed that our MR60 had a firmware update awaiting installation. Foolishly, I used the iPhone app to begin this update. The update ran and reported that it had failed. I tried this process again two or three times on the iPhone app with the same results. I then decided that this update simply wasn't going to work, so I elected to 'Skip' it on the iPhone app. By now, our household wifi had gone offline. I went upstairs and the router showed a blinking white LED on its front. I cycled the power, but the blinking white LED indicator returned. I recycled the power with a router factory default reset, but we still have a blinking white LED. According to the Netgear website, this blinking LED indicates that the router has corrupted firmware.
After looking on the Netgear website, I found out about TFTP direct upload of firmware to the router through an ethernet connection. The TFTP client recommended by Netgear wouldn't run on my newly updated MacBook Pro / Monterey, so I pulled an older MacBook Pro running High Sierra out and I am using this old system to connect to the MR60 router with an ethernet cable. I started an upload of the latest firmware (1.1.6.122) and the TFTP Client indicated that 'blocks' of this firmware were being transfered to the MR60, but after about 60% of the upload was transferred the TFTP Client stops its upload and indicates that the MR60 is 'Not responding'. I cycled the MR60 power, performed a factory reset, and restarted this 1.1.6.122 upload three or four times with identical results. Each time, the TFTP Client indicates that there is a connection, firmware is being transfered to the MR60, and the process stops/crashes at about the 55 to 60% of transfer point. All the while, the MR60 LED is blinking to indicate corrupted firmware! I have tried this process with earlier versions of the MR60 firmware, with identical results. So, it seems that Netgear has bricked my working router, all in the interests of updating its security.
Just now, I learned of the nmrpflash approach to reloading firmware onto this router. I have downloaded the appropriate version of nmrpflash from GitHub and tried run it from a command line prompt, but High Sierra indicates that it is an unreconnized command. Curiously, when I double-click the nmrpflash file in Finder, it will open a terminal window and display a help screen indicating syntax for using this file. When I try to invoke this command from the terminal prompt, MacOS acts like the command doesn't exist. I am using nmrpflash 0.9.16. I could use some help with how to properly invoke this command. I have tried running it with sudo and root-level access, but no luck so far.
I am having an identical problem to that of poison_6022. I have taken the same approach to resolution without success. Now attempting a manual firmware update. Still figuring out how to do that. I have verified a good ISP connection (Verizon FIOS) by connecting my pc to the Verizon router by cable. I have also disconnected the Satellites from the MR60 and only have a Samsung TV attempting to connect thru the MR60. Nighthawk app is showing continued failure to install the update. Any assistance is very welcome.
More background. I was gone from my residence for 6 days. Everything was functioning well when I left. The MR60 was using firmware version .116. Two days ago on Jan 10, I noticed that my Nest thermostat was offline. (With 20F temps, that concerned me but research showed that the Nest would function without an internet connection.) When I returned home on Jan 11, my network seemed intact but there was no connection by the MR60 to the internet. I went through all the troubleshooting that poison_6022 did with no success. After sleeping overnight I did what I described in the first paragraph and everything is now working well under firmware version .122.
Unfortunately, sixteen hours of attempting to upload firmware into my router by ethernet ultimately did not work. Generally, I would be able to establish communications with the router and begin the uploads (tried >12 times) and the transfer would begin without issue. I could follow the progress of the upload via the number of 'blocks' transferred in real time. At approximately 50 to 60% of the transfer, the router would stop responding and the upload would cease. I tried using earlier versions of the router firmware and performing hardware resets of the router. Nothing helped. I was under a time pressure to re-establish wifi in my household, so late in the day I resigned myself to the necessity to scrap the Nighthawk system and purchase a newer replacement system.
My prior Nighthawk mesh router system (with two satellites) was only one year old and out of warranty. I was initially miffed that a firmware update that Netgear was urging me to apply to the system caused this problem and essentially destroyed my system. Initially I resolved to never buy anything ever again from Netgear. However, late in the process of attempting to re-upload the firmware I reached out to Netgear Tech Support for advice on getting this router to resuccitate. I expected to be told that there was nothing that they could or would do for me, given that the 90-day warrenty had expired. However, I was pleasantly suprised to find that one of their support specialists patiently worked with me through many of the later slow firmware upload attempts. This gentleman (I don't remember his name) really went the extra mile to try to help me, even though we ultimately didn't succeed in reviving the Nighthawk router. Interestingly, the story didn't end there.
I purchased a Netgear Orbi router packaged with two satellites. Right after I set up this new system and I was starting to set up the new passwords, the same Netgear tech support called me back without any prompting on my part. Once again, this support specialist walked me through setup and registration of the new mesh system, even though I didn't need any help at that point. For well over another hour this specialist patiently worked with me, again 'going the extra mile'.
As of two days ago, my wifi speeds dropped by half. Also noticed that on the app, I could no longer see devices hooked up to my router or satellite on the network map, and it I tried to test my router speed on the app it would show all zeros, and say my internet speed was moderate. Finally, on the router login page, it wouldn't let me run a speedtest, so had to go to a seperate page. Called "customer service" and they manually walked me through the .122 update, and for some reason they weren't pushing this out automatically. Now my router speed is back to normal, but my satellite is showing connected and good, but is not providing any wifi upstairs. If I do a speed test with my laptop in the office with the satellite, I get the same speeds regardles if the satellite is plugged in or not. Spoke with Level 1 tech and Level 2 tech support two days ago, and had to upload 15 screenshots and programs and debug logs, and being told they will get back to me in 2-3 days. Called again today and the Level 1 guy couldn't tell me if my case has been elevated to level 3 yet, and neither could the supervisor. I could request an update from level 2 and they would call me in 24-48 hours. So, now I wait with a satellite that doesn't work, an app that works partially, and a house with half of my normal internet......
