Factory Firmware

[Csection]

I downloaded the latest factory firmware for my x4s7800. I tried to install but I keep getting a msg. "The firmware is incorrect". I am using Voxel's 1.02.39SF. Can someone please tell me how to get back to factory firmware?

What firmware are you trying to download? It should be a straight swap back to standard, latest firmware I can find for the R7800 is 1.0.2.62. Maybe try a factory reset before updating, but you really should not need to, also be aware there are routers like the XR500, RAX80 so typing x4s7800 could bring up something odd I suppose which could be the incorrect firmware but that's a long shot. You could always update to the latest Voxel release then downgrade from that.

Sorry for the delay. Been fishing!

Sounds almost like the memory has become corrupt possibly. There is a way to using TFTP, possibly worth a try. Hope it helps.
