oh ok..well in that case i'll wait for that tool! thanks chief.

Hi all!! I have performed the update according with the tutorial, and all was done perfectly!! But, when i have entered the details of my connection, the router can detect it, but can't connect to it!! And the wireless not work too!! I have returned to the original firmware, but, if someone can tell me what i should to do (or what i have missed), it will be so fine, because i saw the RouterTech FW is much better than the original one!!

i have the same connection problem, it seems like its quite common with the 2640.

but your wireless should work.
have you tried setting "vlynq_polarity" to "low" (and reboot). if that doesnt work, use the Wireless Environment Builder (WEB) to rebuild your wireless env and reboot.

I have tried setting "vlynq_polarity" to "low" and i have done all that we have in the tutorial. I haven't tried WEB for the wireless prob, because it's not the important prob!! The router should work with connection before trying to use the wireless, and it didn't do that!! I don't know why

So far, you've given very little information that can actually help in diagnosing your problem.

I am from Viet Nam.
I have the the same problem. Cant connect to my isp with pppoe (VPI/VCI 8/35) setting. Configuration is right. I turn back to DLINK firmware and post this problem. I think there is somethings wrong in this firmwre 2.7.
My DSLAM use Huwai products.

There have been more than a thousand downloads, for as many different routers as one could care to think of. And 5 or 6 people having problems means that there is something wrong with the firmware? I doubt it.

Sorry when i said that. and here is my Home screen:

Firmware version: RouterTech_ROHS_3.7.1B_20081005_2.70 20081005071359
System Uptime: 0 hours 2 minutes
DSL Status: Connected
DSL Speed: 636/2042kbps
Ethernet: Connected (Marvell switch)
WAN IP Address: N/A ("VDC")
WAN Uptime: 0 ("VDC")

All settings are correct.

I dont know why I can't connect to my isp, but after i upgrade back to DLINK firmware, my 2640T work properly.

Sorry, but this tells me little about your setup. Post the output of the system diagnostics.

I'm sure that i setup with right configuration parameters, because i am now woking at a ADSL provider company.
I choose a new connecttion (i deleted default connection when upgrade to new firmware).
I choosed pppoe with pci/vci 8/35 and QoS with UBR(default) and others parameters are use by default.
Then I choosed connect and apply. Even when I 'Save All' and reboot my ADSL modem, i still didn't work.

Please post the system diagnostics as requested - the router log may be useful as well.
