cannot cross flash at all. 100% i guess is completely different hardware and software although based on MTK soc & wifi solution. even app use is completely different

the normal retail version is made directly by d-link own factory that can use the normal "D-link wi-fi" app (first one)

while Z version aka netis version can only use the third one "d-link wifi connect" app, this point is kinda sus plus my random googling of another Z model that leads me to netis own version

Guess need white rat to disassemble the X1860 VS X1860Z to see how the motherboard inside same or not already.
I remember last time the previous one DIR-842 retail VS DIR-842 unifi firmware. The only different is the USB and without USB..

If cross flash to retail version, then the USB (DIR-842 unifi firmware) is no more function already.

So back to this one X1860Z and without Z version. If the hardware version totally not the same, I think we just abandon for this flashing firmware projects already.
Damn crapped final dig some inform, realize that unifi give crapped again router wifi 6...

Hmm, 880Mhz for sure it's the MediaTek MT7621 platform
Not sure what the 1Ghz one is based on though, Realtek maybe?

need a while before some one (or me) crack open it.. still new..

btw, someone pointed out that this Z router might be not from DLink as the design same as Netis router.

Netis N6T

Netis N6

to add to the confusion, I can find the same router under this "stonet" brand

the site seems like a total copy of the netis site

https://www.stonet.cc/Home/detail/id/3.html

info from https://fccid.io/T58N6R

seems like its netcore -> netis -> stonet
weird

someone with the X1860Z, is there an FCC ID at the sticker below? that's the easiest way to figure out

hm.. i didnt notice there's FCC sticker underneath..
usual login sticker is there..

but will check back later at home.

Maybe is mt7622b chipset, 1.35ghz

Linksys e8450 use this chipset also 128mb nand flash

I will go find 2nd hand cheap to dissembly dig inside

This is netis N6TR version which has 1+3 wan/lan ports (identical to 1860Z) the chipset might be from ZXIC (ZTE subsidiary) which may explain the disparate of clock speed.

So 1860Z might be base on this board/hardware version

China telecom version kek

Netcore version got people cracked got root permission, but firmware is mod openwrt version. It got people ported this router is good use for adguard🤤🤤


Dunno dlink version is same or not

No clue also if no open source stuff, as dead as realtek

Wow thanks man. I almost gave up. 3.13 -> openwrt

my dlink x1860z became netcore..lol

Updated firmware?

no. I downloaded the firmware from netcore offical web and just throw it on my x1860z local update. but i dont recommend to try. You will need some tweak to use it.the firmware just got CN language..here some screenshot of the firmware.I already translate a little

Oh.. i see.. hows the performance?

I dont really see any different.but I notice when on original firmware my ancient device hardly to find my wifi ssid.. with this netcore.. seems okay..

Thank you for this wonderful finding . Bengong betul TM pergi default to 192.168.0.10, mine is 3.07TM dated 20 May 2021.

The symptom is, when you connect the cable, LAN in Windows unable to recognize it as "Network", it will appear as "Unidentified Network". So you will never able to browse to 192.168.0.1 as the LAN connection is not established. Another thing, TM disabled UI firmware update as well.

Do you mind share how you discover the dot 10 IP? I'm happy with my OpenWRT now, adblock, parental control, network statistics, some IoT & some automation.

Hi all, I have a router previously provided by TM DIR-842 C2 and got a new router when upgrading the wifi. So i was planning to use it as a wireless repeater, but from the guides I check online the setting page (192.168.0.1) seems to be different from everything I got from the internet. Also it seems like ISP have limited only some functions of the router?

When I have my pc connected to the wifi and this router using Lan cable. How do i access both of the setting pages.

It does have a repeater mode but not "site survey" like shown in other guides. Can anyone let me know what am i missing out on?
Say if i am unable to set it up wirelessly, it is still possible connect it through a cable and still use it as an wifi extender

If anyone have any other options other than tossing the router back into the box and store, I'd appreciate it.

Hi there, is your DIR-842 revision C1 or C2? I wonder if C2 really got firmware version 3.07 from TM?
