Actiontec® 1520 and 1524
How to Recover Firmware for Mac OS
®
8.01 to 9.2.2
If your Actiontec® DSL modem isn’t working (i.e., the Internet LED light isn't on) or isn’t responding
properly, this recovery procedure will reset the modem to factory defaults.
Before you begin
the steps in this document:
•
Download the appropriate firmware recovery file, either for the Actiontec 1520 or 1524.
•
Plug the modem into one computer directly, using the Ethernet cable (don’t use a wireless
connection). This procedure won’t work if a hub, switch or another router are used.
•
Record all configuration information. All modem configurations will be lost when you perform the
recovery process. You’ll need to reconfigure your modem once the recovery is complete.
1. Open the file. The file name you see on your screen may be different from the picture below,
depending on if you have the Actiontec 1520 or 1524.
The file will un-stuff automatically and place a program folder on your desktop.
"Loading the manual" means you need to wait until the file loads and becomes available for online reading. Some manuals are very large, and the time they take to appear depends on your internet speed.
