Firmware ZXHN H118N from Dom.ru without soldering and programmer
- From the sandbox
- Tutorial

Hello!
The problem is in its short firmware, which is tied to the provider dom.ru (ErTelecom), where you can enter only the PPPOE username and password for connecting to the Internet.
This functionality is enough for a housewife, but not for me.
Therefore, we will reflash this router!
The first difficulty is that you can’t reflash it either. Dom.ru took care of this thoroughly. It is only possible on firmware Dom.ru. But here in the old firmware dom.ru, to which you can roll back (downgrade), it is possible to fill in the original version of the ZTE firmware.
1. Enter in the address bar 192.168.0.1/html/menu.html, then click any character - it will show the factory webcam.
2. Go to the “Management” page
3. “Firmware Upgrade” tab
4. First, flashing the firmware from DOMRU - DOMRU__ZXHN + H118NV2.0.1d_E04_OV.img (Old firmware for home.ru with the option to upgrade).
5. After the firmware, the router receives IP - 192.168.0.1. But through the WEB does not allow to enter the face. It is possible only through TELNET - User: root Pass: root (who cares).
6. Pressing the button resets, translate it into default state.
6.1. Perhaps the router will change the address to 192.168.1.1, and also in the settings of your device connected to the router you need to manually enter the
IP details 192.168.1.2
Mask 255.255.255.0
Gateway 192.168.1.1
Without this, I was redirected to 192.168.1.1 to page 404
7. There is access to WEB with user: admin pass: admin
8. Then from point 4. Only flash the original firmware taken from the archive - ZXHN + H118NV2.0.1d_E04_OV.img
9. access to WEB with user: admin pass: admin
PS В The Internet is full of forums filled with similar topics, and an overabundance of methods and information. This is a specific method that helped me, I hope it will help you.
