Please help updating Toon software v2.10.15

Post by negrito »

After a long time I have connected my Toon and see its running software 2.10.15
Is it possible to update it without an Eneco subscription, because I have no idea how to update this one.
There is no update button next to the software version number. Even rooting the Toon is not possible as far as I know.
Please help me out any one?

best regads,

I don't see why rooting would be impossible.

OK Marcelr,

Can you please tell me how to root this toon with software 2.10.15.
Because the normal rooting procedure does not work. I think busybox is too old.
Commandos are not recognized. Do I need to update the software first?
I don't have Eneco as my energy supplier. Please help me out? Toon info:

If you can't enter the u-boot password, try and switch the RxD and TxD connections of the serial interface. It's a common mistake.
busybox isn't too old, actually, the latest version is the one that create problems with rooting. But that's solved already, although it takes extra measures to get going.
And again, there's no need to upgrade first. Wouldn't do it, see previous line.

If he received the output shown, he had the Rx on the right pin. But probably didn't put the Tx on the right pin. (I also did that wrong two times)
