Mag324w2 Auto Updating even after disable

[navigates]

Hi everyone. I hope someone can help. I just got the mag324w2/325w2
I've gone to recovery mode and loaded the NOBLOCK_324 file successfully, however during reboot it does an auto-update to 2.20.08r2-324
I've attached the screenshots.

I have disabled auto update and also changed the auto update url.

thanks soo much. Is there a solution or maybe I got the wrong box.?

Maybe try and have the box disconnected from Wifi/ethernet during the first boot after you loaded NOBLOCK_324 ?

And after that go back into settings and make sure the auto update is turned of

I do believe that the NoBlock should not update .. Are you sure you have done it correctly ?

Once No Block is updated, I do see it as the firmware. If you see the screenshot , it shows updating from noblock to the new firmware. Do you think its because it is the 324w2 model?

Dont think so.. Because then it would not update at all .. Did you try and leave it disconnected from internet at the first boot ?

I have tried that and when I remove the ethernet it boots just fine without the update. however when I put the ethernet the update starts.
I've also ensured the auto update is set to disable.

No Issues. I believe it may be a bug with the mag box since its the w2 version. I tried to look extensively for the non w2 version as I didn't need the wifi connectivity but couldn't find it.

is there a way to probably block the update server on the router maybe?

 

[Sense]

Yes.. On most routers you can edit the firewal to not allow trafic from certain IP:s

But you need to know the ip or DNS for the update server

Is there a way to ssh into the box and disable the update. I just loaded up the noblock and it reupdated it on boot. even after the update is set to no.

Really not sure if you can telnet into a MAGbox

Thanks. I'm then confused as to what is to be done. For now I am using an alternate Url to make things work
I also find the box freezing at times but then post the freeze the program does not continue automatically until a manual intervention is done by exiting and reentering the show.

I have the formuler z8 to test as well and that continues once it freezes. However I don't like the z8's interface.

Install original image with USB and the update you want with USB as well. Make sure you are not connected to the Internet until you have turned off auto update

Do you mean I should download the original image and try this out? I am on a factory updated image now. I think I should push an old version and then block and then do the no block ?

try to install old version first

I can get the latest in this location

Can't seem to find the old version on the wiki. I can go into the archive but it shows russian docs.

I tried to load an old version and disabled the update and loaded the noblock update. however on reboot it still pushed the new update. I believe it may be because I have the mag324w2 model and not the mag324? Are the models the same firmware wise?
