In reply to a post by countryman69:

Are you running a weblogging app that generates the emails when it loses contact with the web (as in a reboot)?

Frtizbox has a notification option for each event when it receives an IP address.

How do you know if the Zen version has the same internals ? Have you stripped both types down?[/[quote]
See this. And same firmware, obviously.

I keep coming back to wondering what exactly is the difference in the Zen s/w to the mainstream version.

I think it's just configuration, and the router reporting its edition in config header not as avme but as zen. I'll try to reflash the avme header once I get home next week and see whether it will enable standard recovery. But I faintly recall that AVM has blocked edition change via config flash, while I don't have enough time unfortunately to fiddle with terminal commands.

I've sent my old router back, in agreement with Zen. I was more than happy to return it and keep the AX replacement permanently.

AVM have also replied that they were unable to find a cause, and have provided a downgrade file!

Assume this wont work due to Zen though, and I wont be trying it as Zen are taking it back.

Respect !

That boxmatrix link is excellent. Note that the AX has twice the memory of the basic 7530 !

AVM sent me the link to a recover.exe for 7.59 but as I do't have a PC, not much use to me unfortunately.

I received a 7530 AX from Zen. To get my 1200 repeater to reconnect, I just had to reconnect it using WPS as with a new unit.

I found it wasn't reporting connected devices correctly on the 7530AX network>mesh page, but after power-cycling the 1200 repeater it is now OK.

It's now been 48 hours without a reboot since the AX router was installed, so I'll be returning the old 7530.

All look rock-solid for now.

Slightly worrying performance from Zen customer service reported here, but my own experience has actually been OK. I'll be staying with them for the time being.

Let's hope it's not a sign of a general decline. They have been exemplary for ten years.

Seconded. We've been with them almost since Day One

Can I please ask folk who are reading this thread to check something for me?

Are you able to see Internet > Mobile Network as an option, please.

Many thanks

Hi. I've looked all over but can't find where to set this up. Can you help, please ? Thank you

Push service > Current IP address.

Shouldn't the option show only when a USB modem is inserted?
