I was extrapolating from the fact a "normal" reset has a led flashing as an indicator, but I see no indication in the wiki that this would happen with a protected boot's reset.īut still. I thought you have to be very lucky blindly count with a watch trying to guess when you have to stop pressing button.Īctually, you might be right. I am glad that this issue has been addressed since it is a serious one, but I think it needs to be better than as it is now at this stage.Īhhh ok i didnt see that a led will start flashing when right time -seconds reached. My suggestion would be, is it possible to add a password to protect the routerboard from netinstall? A password which will prompt at the netinstall window? This is a better way to protect it. I just tested it on a SXT, and the SXT even flashes after the time is reached, indicating that the button can be released and it enters into netistall. This new method is a good step at protecting the routerboards, but still one can netinstall by holding the reset button for the given time. But there was no way to protect a routerboard from netinstall. I have even asked support long time ago if there was anyway to stop others from steeling routerboards installed at open by resetting or netinstall-ing them. Time after time this is a considerable loss. Keep in mind that SXT is generally offered free of charge to the customer, so there is one lost. This competitor resets the SXT and configures it at his needs, and there goes one SXT. A month later or so, a competitor goes and lures this customer to offer a better service without even needing to change anything. What actually happens, is that a customer asks for internet connection, and generally a SXT is installed at premises. It is a good first step to protect the routerboards which are installed into the open. This is a good feature but not as I would have expected it to act yet.
