Yep, too true

Last published upgrade for BB1 (Orange to EE branding) was 2012)

http://help.ee.co.uk/system/selfservice.controller?C...

EE did tell me they were going to release something about this but as yet, I can't see anything. Perhaps they are going to wait until the roll out has been completed?

I have spoken to a reliable rep and he said EE are hoping to have this rolled out by the end of February 2014.

Is that the firmware patch or the statement about what's happened? Just for clarification.

Hi Scott,

The firmware patch for BB2 should be rolled out by end of Feb.

Cheers

Steve

Here is my latest blog on the firmware update that EE have released:

http://scotthel.me/eebb2

EE have patched 2 out of the 3 major issues and they are currently working towards resolving the 3rd. More details in the blog.

Firmware update done on my BrightBox 1 last night - midnight:

SYSTEM

Runtime Code Version: v0.10.06.0001-OT (Wed Jan 22 22:50:41 2014)
Boot Code Version: v1.00.10.0006-OT (Fri Sep 21 03:00:26 2012)
ADSL Modem Code Version: A2pD035b.d23i
Hardware Version: 01

Do you think that when EE send you a replacement BB1 (to try allegedly to fix a fault) that they 'deregister' your original BB1 so it won't get the update?

I ran the new BB1 for about 2 weeks, the last 7 days of which the line has been faultless. So I have reverted to my original BB1 to prove to myself that the original fault had nowt to do with the router. It has now run 3.5 days faultlessly.

So i'm wondering whether the original BB1, now online, will ever get the update?

Ripping the firmware, packing and uploading it is trivial for someone with the skill to do so. If someone with a Bright Box which is updated, you can send me it, I'll rip the firmware and share it. Then, all you have to do is flash your Bright Box using the recovery page. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy

Irrelevant to my Q. I'm not interested in unofficial bodges by someone who is unable to test his mods thoroughly and fully w/out any quality assurance.
