EE NR5103 firmware

Has anyone successfully replaced the EE firmware on an EE branded NR5103 router with the stock Zyxel NR5103 firmware. please?

I've seen a Youtube video showing someone going into the o/s via SSH and changing a setting that then facilitates this but they never actually did the firmware change.

Reason I ask is that I am led to believe the Zyxel firmware has more facilities as the EE firmware is locked down.

I have to say that EE's firmware is really bad. You have cut off too many functions and it is really a waste of its performance. Can you please optimize EE's firmware? If you can't do that, please unlock the firmware for us and let us return to Zyxel. At the very least, Zyxel can update the firmware development function to maintain our equipment. And you EEs are trash and can’t do anything.

Hi @SHIELD-S 

Welcome to the community.

Is there a certain feature that you're trying to access?

Chris

First of all, ee cannot lock the frequency band. I mean N77.N78. Secondly, the USB interface on the back cannot be used. Generally speaking, normal router USB can be used to access the hard disk, such as the SMB function, and it does not even have the most basic bridge network function. Don’t you understand that you are already several versions behind the Zyxel firmware?

I agree with you

Обновление выпустите для ЕЕ nr5103 , разблокируйте управление бэндами частот 🙏,  либо дайте возможность откатить на прошивку производителя zyxel.

Release an update for EE nr5103, unlock control of frequency bands 🙏, or give the opportunity to roll back to the manufacturer's firmware zyxel.
