New Firmware for Fritz!Box 7390

(1/36) > >>

Ardua:
Firmware Version 84.05.04 has just been released by AVM for the Fritz!Box 7390.   My box has re-synched at its old ADSL2+ settings; however, some cousins 'down under' are suggesting that their ADSL connections are slightly slower.


NB: For those not familiar with this modem/router, the box has both ADSL/FTTC connectivity as well as an integrated DECT base station, answer phone, VOIP and media server functions.

FritzBox:
Router is total tosh on my ADSL Max line, nothing but resyncs

Working fine here on ADSL2+. Synch rate has increased to 17.9Mbps and the box holds a pretty stable connection down to 2 SNR. (Synched for nearly 2 days now with CRC rates/min of 0.23 down and 0.19 up).  I get a re-synch about every 2 to 3 days on average. The synch drops by a couple of hundred and then the next time it increases. I am sure that I could rectify this by moving the Line Settings but I see no point given that synch speed is not really changing.

I note that there is discussion on the 'down under' website the the RC firmware holds the synch better on long/noisy lines. Others have used the recovery tool and re-installed the firmware. My only minor complaint is the odd phantom DECT phone call.

FritzBox:
Gone back to 84.05.04-19804
