Xiaomi BE5000 new firmware 1.0.91 is available since Aug-2025 on the website, but the router says no update found. Same for Mi home app and web browser UI. Anyone knows why?

You can always manually download and then upgrade.

I will try it with my Xiaomi BE5000 tonight to see how it goes.

Just downloaded the FW and used the Web UI to upgrade.

1. Before upgrade:

当前版本1.0.53，你的版本是最新的，无需升级。

2. Change log (no details at all).

Normal functions seem to be okay.

2.4GHz+5GHz MLO WiFi 7 Speedtest using my Acer Swift Go 14 2024 model (Intel Killer BE1750x WiFi 7 adapter).

One major problem is that the existing SSH does not work now, Need to try again. I was able to get SSH to work previously.

The other problem is that settings backup does not seem to work now. It does not seem to do anything after I click "start backup" button.

Take note I use this Xiaomi BE5000 only for testing purpose, so it is not important to me.

I wish it would have OpenWRT support in the future though.

1) The following SSH method does not seem to work with 1.0.91 FW version.
https://github.com/iamsxm/BE5000_SSh_UI

All the excution commands seem to be okay but SSH port is still closed.

PS C:\work\networking\xiaomi> ssh root@192.168.31.1 -p 23323
ssh: connect to host 192.168.31.1 port 23323: Connection refused

 

[xiaofan]

2) I remember the following method worked for Xiaomi BE5000 1.0.53 FW, now it does not work with 1.0.91 FW.

(py312venv) PS C:\work\networking\xiaomi\BE5000_GetShell> python .\crack.py
Start retriving SSH permission.
(hang here).

Thanks for the info.

So far I do not have any issue with 1.0.53, so not sure if should upgrade to new FW. I don't use advance feature like SSH. Is it possible to quickly rollback to previous FW after upgrade?

Strangely can't seem to find the BE6500 on Xiaomi Taobao Flagship Store. Don't think so fast phased out?

I tend to think Xiaomi has not phased out Xiaomi BE6500 as it is still available from 小米商城 at RMB 449.

Maybe they have limited stock and want to promote their own online shop.
