I posted this inquiry on the ZTE forum but got no replies yet.
I am having issues changing the firmware on my router.
The contract with the ISP ended and they left the router. So now I can do what ever I want with it and I want to change the firmware. The current firmware on the router is customized by them (the ISP) and I think it is locked.
I have tried 4 TFTP servers to push the new firmware but none of them worked.
I also tried to use WINSCP to push the file to the /tmp folder and access it from telnet but it did not work either.
There are several video on YouTube about this exact chipset router and that is why I suspect that it is locked by the ISP, and that is because it works in the video.
The below link has all the details I could find on this model and I was able to reach into it VIA Telnet, as per the below link. it requires 2 passwords to log into the root via Telnet it which worked for me. So I tried to find a way to write a file to the /tmp folder in it via telnet but could not find one and I tried to create SSH to push it via WINSCP but did not succeed. I am not sure why. Not sure if it is the configuration. I found videos on how to do it and tried it.
Here is the link on the details: https://jalalsela.com/hacking-zxhn-h108n-router/
Is there to find out if the firmware is locked? Is there a way to unlock it? Can I delete the firmware from Telnet and then add a new one?
Please give me all the tips to solve this issue.
