Sky Router Upgrade - Bricked

[link to this post]

Hello!

Just got home tonight to find my Sky ADSL not working, the SR101 was sat with the power LED but no others indicators lit, restarted it multiple times, no help, packet captured on the LAN port showed no output. In the end I held the reset button for 10 seconds which factory defaulted it.

When it started back up the UI has changed and it now shows IPv6 for LAN and WAN (nothing assigned on WAN).

Manufacturer Sky
Model SR101
Firmware Version 3.45.1133.R
DSL Firmware VersionA2pD039f.d24m

Anyone else had a similar thing happen during the IPv6 upgrade?
Cheers

Lee

Its not bricked if it comes back after a reboot/power cycle. (bricked would be needing a manual firmware update or return to Sky).

My mate has the old Sagem and that did something similar last year when it got the IPv6 capable software, but no IPv6 WAN yet.

Oddly enough my neighbour's SR101 has done the same thing this morning. Obviously Sky haven't thoroughly tested the upgrade process....

Is your SR101 now working?

Yep, after a hard reset
