WE826-T2 - Can't install any firmware

Post by hayedid »

Hi. I bought a WE826-T2 via ebay and discovered it had no ability to set the MCC or MNC so I can't get my SIM card online.

Then I discovered this website, but I can't seem to get any firmware to load. Every time I attempt it, I get the message 'Invalid Version'.

Currently the firmware that is on there is called 'Intelligent Router' and is at Version 19.1101(2019-11-01 23:35:31).

I tried Rooter, this link: https://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?t=196 and https://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?t=288 and several others. Much of it doesn't seem to apply to this router.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you,

Have you tried the process outlined in https://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?t=5? BillA also has an extensive writeup to flashing via Bootloader at https://wirelessjoint.com/viewtopic.php?p=6007#p6007

Just went through this process with a WG3526. Trying to upload the build through the "upgrade firmware" option on the stock image resulted in an "Incorrect Model" error every time. The Bootloader method was the only option that worked (for me) to flash the GoldenOrb firmware.

As stated in the guides, you'll need an ethernet connection to a LAN port (wifi will not work). Also, Google Translate works great for reading the characters on the load screen.
