anyone know what is the latest firmware version for zhone 2426?

my firmware is S3.1.208

viewqwest wants to update the fw but i am not sure whether the latest version will have issues

Mine is running on S3.0.610.

Using this version for a yr plus. So far no issue for me.

type the IP address of your gpon and the zhone menu will show up. Then you click on Status and follow by Device Info. You will be able to see all its device information.

cheers

If you are on bridge mode, does the firmware on the zhone affect you in anyway ?

The zhone will just simple pass off the traffic to your router for routing.

Coincidentally I was a singnet user since the dial up until broadband, I made a switch to SH. Singnet = Zero customer service + Zero loyalty rewards at that time.

I still have my Starhub broadband for back up and because of the hub club privileges. Several encounters with SH technical team, most of the time requires me to do direct lan connection to pc and reboot router.

In comparison, I just send emails to NOC to get issues resolved if any. Been getting upgrade of bandwidth for the past 3-4 years, from 100mbps to 1gbps now. Still paying the same price.

Just hope things don't get worsened to SingNet & StarHub's stage, where they don't even give you a damn.


lol. I went through the same process as you. SingNet and then StarHub for years until VQ came along. The difference in CS is night and days between VQ and those two. I am happy to have alternatives to keep the big 3 in check.

Same. SN, ST, NTT then MR, VQ, gave MR another chance (for 1 month no contract plan) and back to VQ

Recent outages are quite ridiculous but other than that, the customer service has been excellent

Anyone had Netflix throwing proxy and unblocker error?

Sent from Huawei NEXUS 6P using GAGT


Yes I get an error when I use the non-Freedom VPN DNS. Singapore netflix doesn't work for me (but US does when I use Freedom VPN)


Yes I faced the same issue on Netflix. I do not have Freedom VPN on my service.

Anyway I tried Switching to 4G connection and the Video play right away without the error. The moment I switch to VQ the error appear.

But this is affecting some show only.

I've been with VQ for almost 3 years now, i do appreciate them taking the extra mile for customer service whether is due to technical issue or something else.

Having an email helpdesk for non-urgent issues is good too. And if your issue isn't resolve, u can escalate thru fb or hwz. you can also depend on other enthusiast users posting here if there is any problem (community)

overall, they are quite innovative and responsive regarding their products like VQTV, FVPN, etc and route optimizations.

but they do need to be more improve on their communications sometimes, different teams have mismatch info sometimes.

otherwise keep up the good work, cheers
