Enable Netgear Downloader on a R7800 Voxel Firmware

Hello, 

 

Since I flash the latest Voxel Firmware (1.0.2 50SF) on my R7800, Netgear Downloader Manager can't load anymore.

Transmission is automatically enabled, I can acces it by entering "MY IP":9091. The problem is I don't want to use a torrent downloader but a http downloader.

I try to find a parameter to disable transmission and enable the Netgear donwloader without success.

I can't load the the Netgaer Downloader Manager panel (please wait....) so I can't activate it.

Thanks for your help!!

Tell me if I'm wrong but Transmission is only a torrent downloader and it's not what I want!

Hello,

Hello,

 

Since I flash the latest Voxel Firmware (1.0.2 50SF) on my R7800, Netgear Downloader Manager can't load anymore.

 

Latest version is 1.0.2.53SF-KF

 

Transmission is automatically enabled, I can acces it by entering "MY IP":9091. The problem is I don't want to use a torrent downloader but a http downloader.

I try to find a parameter to disable transmission and enable the Netgear donwloader without success.

 

I can't load the the Netgaer Downloader Manager panel (please wait....) so I can't activate it.

 

Probably there are problems with your browser's cache. Try to clear the cache. Panel is working from router's GUI and NG Downloader could be activated from GUI, I've checked right now.

P.S.
To say true NG Downloader is a bit strange for me. First, I did not succeed to use HTTP/FTP downloader with the stock firmware. Second, it is difficult to find today HTTP links (only HTTPS) and FTP links too because of security.

Hello Voxel, 

Hello Voxel, 

Thanks for your help. I clean my browser's cache and try Firefox instead of Safari and the same message appeared.

So I updated the firmware to 1.0.2.53SF-KF and the panel is now correctly loaded!

In fact, I hoped that https is supported but no... And I also did not succeed to use HTTP downloader to download any file on a HTTP link.

I will find an other way. Thanks again for your help.
