Cannot download IOS software for my 1760

[markus-rothe]

Hello,

I would like to download a newer IOS release for my 1760, but it doesn't work.

This is what I do:

1. Go to http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/routers/ps221/ps227/index.html

2. click on "Download software"

3. select "IOS Software"

4. select "12.4.17a(LD)" under "Latest Releases"

5. select the release for "c1700-adventerprisek9-mz.124-17a.bin"

6. getting to a page which sais this: "To download this software, you must do all of the following: Register [...]"

7. I am registered, so I click on "Log in now"

8. As I have already logged in I am getting back to the page I was in step no. 5.

9. This ends in a loop...

I am using Firefox 2.0.0.11.

Someone please tell me how I get new Releases for the router.

Regards,

-markus

do you have an account with the rights to download software vom cisco.com? A "normal" User does not get software from the cisco site.

thanks. I didn't knew that. And there is no indication for this! Only that 'due to export rights of the US...' you have to create an account.

where can I get the latest security updates then?

Hi,

to download cisco software, you must purchase a support contract (aka smartnet) that is available from any cisco reseller or partner.

There is no access to download without it.
