Author Topic: Port forwarding settings not saved - Linksys WRT54G v8.00.7 (Read 4623 times)

diesel · « **on:** November 09, 2009, 11:14:09 AM »

The script for my router is failing when it tries to save the newly entered port forwarding settings. This isn't a showstopper since I can just click the "Save Settings" button in the browser window, but I though you'd like to know about the problem.

Simple Port Forwarding was running on a system with Windows XP Pro SP3. The problem persists even when I set my IE8 Security and Privacy settings to their lowest values. The firmware revision date is relatively recent (v8.00.7 build 011, Jul. 27, 2009) and the change in the look and feel of the interface was obvious after the update was applied.

Here's the log:

Thanks for the great post. You've pretty much covered all the bases and you are absolutely correct in that Shane will want to get the script fixed.

It looks like the name of the "Save Settings" button changed. Can you mouse over the button and tell us what name it is using? Just look in the lower left of your browswer window and tell us what comes up as the link for the button.

Thanks for trying out the app and I'm glad you enjoy it!

When I mouse over the "Save Settings" button, the address in the browser status bar is: javascript:to_submit(document.forms[0])

Thanks for the reply. I'll be sure Shane checks it out. Hopefully everything will be working shortly!

ah easy fix!

Can you tell me the new firmware version you have by chance?
Just wondering if I need to change the current script or make a new one for the new firmware.

Shane

Shane · « **Reply #5 on:** November 09, 2009, 01:45:19 PM »

never mind the firmware version is in the post title LOL

I will update the script later today

Shane

Shane · « **Reply #6 on:** November 09, 2009, 01:50:38 PM »

Ok script is updated. I left the save settings button command for the old version of the firmware but added the new command for the yours. This way the script can still support both

Thanks again

Okay, I updated my router list and tried again. Now it reports success, but the entry still isn't saved.

Is there any other information that I can provide that will help?

Well I see where the old button command is getting called and failed but then the new one is called and is successful...but you say that it isn't actually saved?

You could try enabling Debugging Mode under the Advanced menu. That will allow you to step through each step which might work. Let me know if anything different happens with that.

Shane might need to just remove the old button command, but that wasn't expected to cause a problem...hence the Debug mode suggestion. Lets see how that works.

The old command wont hurt since it isnt being called because it fails to find the button.

2 things, 1, make sure the page isnt loading out of cache, try right clicking on it and refresh, just to make sure.
2. Load the page, then right click and view source. save it as a text file and attach it and I can look at what it needs

Shane

Stepping through the script in Debug Mode didn't help. Nor did refreshing the browser window.

FWIW, I tried running SPF on another machine (Windows Vista and IE7) and got the same result.

I've attached the page source.

odd when I view it in my html editor the save settings commands are gone. DO me a fav and use the router screen capture program, you need min of 5 pages in the program so just grab the same page a few times lol. Upload that to me and see if it grabs more of the info I need.

Shane

You can download that tool here (http://www.pcwintech.com/router-screen-capture)

Zip file uploaded. Hope it helps.

Thanks again.

Got it

Quick question, after the last step does the page come up saing settings successful? or does it just stay on the same page?
