Re: Sagemcom C8CD firmware updates should be happening now
there's an updater daemon running on the router
that checks a txt file on a sky website
to see if there's an update available
Here's an example for the 2504
[SAGEM2504]
downloadHost=download.skyfirmware.com
firmwarePath=/S/*********/**************/download/firmware/fast2504/
firmwareImage=2.8Sky
firmwareSize=3606649
configPath=/session/*********/**************/download/config/fast2504/
configName=FAST2504_standard_13.conf
statusHost=download.skyfirmware.com
statusPath=/session/*********/**************/status/
Firmware URL

Re: Sagemcom C8CD firmware updates should be happening now
I don't have the specific technical details, but I would hazard a guess at the fact that Sky will have a limited back-door into the router and be able to recognise the MAC address of the Sagem 2304n routers.
All the early Sagem 2304n routers have a MAC address that begins with C8C for example.

Re: Sagemcom C8CD firmware updates should be happening now
Both the sky netgear dg834gt and D-link dsl-2640s also run an update daemon, called "provisioning_ap" and "updater" respectively, which check for new firmware.
The Dg834GT initially downloads the following URL using wget
Code:http://dg834gt.skyfirmware.com/?mac=AABBCCDDEEFF&firmwareVersion=1.03.27&model=dg834gt&product=skydsl
The d-link's initial download is
Code:http://dsl-2640s.skyfirmware.com/?mac=%s&firmwareVersion=%s&model=%s&product=%s
You'll notice that the urls are the same format
So at a guess the new sagem might check a url something along these lines:-
Code:http://fast2304.skyfirmware.com/?mac=AABCCDDEEFF&firmwareVersion=5.14.6a4N&model=fast2304&product=skydsl

Re: Sagemcom C8CD firmware updates should be happening now
Can't understand why sky will not make the firmware public, doing nothing just makes them look even worse.

Re: Sagemcom C8CD firmware updates should be happening now
Somebody said that the 2304N's being sent out now have the upgraded firmware. Has anybody checked the cd that came with the router?

Re: Sagemcom C8CD firmware updates should be happening now
That wouldn't be a bad idea, in case anyone needs to use the recovery software, as you really wouldn't want to go back to one that has a serious issue with wifi, even temporarily, if you connect your PC that way.
I think they released one before for the original router, but I'd guess is that they won't do that unless they are confident that upgrade won't generate loads of calls to support.

One of you should try pulling the file as per fuzzy logic's instructions
