Hi man, sorry I'm asking very late on the video, but does this model of the router not have an option to view users internet search history? I'm looking for it so far nothing

@grammarnazi1868 Год назад

Hi, do you know if it's possible to update the router's firmware? And if it is, where to find and updated version (I've searched the whole internet but can't find one), and how to upload it to the router? For info, my interface looks exactly the same as yours, except the "User Configuration Management" tab on the System Management option in Management & Diagnosis is missing.

@freename Год назад

It's likely your ISP has hidden those sections to "stop you breaking stuff" and causing their support team more cost and time. For example Hyperoptic hide the VoIP section too. A bit like Technicolor and the ISP only Zyxels; it's likely you can only get the firmware if you are the ISP and must deploy the firmware as the ISP via remote rather than send the file to the customer. There is a way to hack this router but it is very complex: thecomputerperson.wordpress.com/2021/12/29/gaining-full-root-access-to-the-hyperoptic-zte-zxhn-h298a/

Hi - thanks for taking the time to make and share the video. The problem I have is that my ZTE ZXHN H298A router (V1.0 V1.0.25_HOP.1T11) no longer shows the Samba Service option. It used to but now it is not on the list under Status when I am in the Local Network menu. It just shows: WLAN; LAN; FTP; UPnP; DMS and DNS. if anyone can help it would be much appreciated.

hi is it possibe to create a batch or bash script to login into router with curl and extract connected devices list?

@freename Год назад

Yes but I don't have the router any more to test with :( I'd suggest looking at F12/Developer tools in your browser to see how it logs in, what cookies you need to store and repeat for the device list page. Also see if you can SSH in? Command line ssh to the router, if it supports it, might be easier for what you need.

So If I know the MAC address and would like to block that device (without changing wifi's name), I should add that device as a new item and that's it? or need to touch something in the Black/White list config?

If it is a wireless connected device 10:43 select blacklist for the SSID(s) and then enter the MAC and SSID to block on in the section below. You could also try the Parental Controls at 6:30 if it is a wired device or if the wireless MAC control doesn't appear to be working the way you need.

@freename 6 месяцев назад

Unless you pay for a static IP with Hyperoptic, Hyperoptic use CGNAT which means you can never have open NAT. You share a public IP address with hundreds of other people. However, that shouldn't affect your ping. If you use a computer to ping 208.67.222.222 what ms do you get? E.g. I get 4.5ms Also, don't use WiFi for games! Wire in.

@freename I've just switched to Hyperoptic from Sky and I have a WD MyCloud EX2 Ultra NAS that was working like a treat on Sky, but won't connect now I've moved to Hyperoptic. Any thoughts? WD don't seem to know ... Hyperoptic are less than useless. WD tell me that the NAS needs access to ports 443, 8443 and 40000-49999 to work, which I read somewhere is reserved for Hyperoptic service access.

@freename 5 месяцев назад

As in the function to access your NAS when you are away from home? If those are port forwards on the router then it won't work on Hyperoptic as they use CGNAT (Carrier Grade NAT) where tens, if not hundreds of customers share a public IP address. The only way around it is to either pay for a static IP address or grumble enough that they give one to you free (no idea if they do this, but CGNAT is a terrible idea so making Hyperoptic's life annoying over it is a good plan).

@freename Год назад

Almost no router supports this. Or it's unlikely to be of any use if they do due to the sheer number of requests every computer and device sends even if they are not in use. The router doesn't know the difference between you browsing to a site vs. the machine or device downloading updates, checking for new notifications, refreshing authentication tokens etc.
