Hi rafik23! Welcome back! 😄

Usually D-Link series with suffix "U" are intended to Middle East, Russia and Australia.
But we hope to see it soon in a European version!

rafik23

you can consider this like 455 and 457 firstly was published in russia and middle east and after is populated in europe , just this is an anounce for DIR-456, i have procured it from england but i think no diffrence in hardware between DIR-456 and DIR-456U and it's very new dlink product, announced in headerquarter dlink.com as residential router.

have you tried recovery procedure ?
take reset and power on between 10 and 20 sec and release reset , when power led blink orange, and try to acces ton recovery mode page on http://192.168.0.1 first you must have an adress ip 192.168.0.X and 255.255.255.0 in subnet mask in your lan adapter configuration, and it must be connected on lan port not internet port or wireless in your dir-456u and here you can upload firmware again. it can been repaired with reflash. you will have a this page

Hi Everyone,

Anyone can help me how to get new firmware from ftp site or other way.
Looking for help urgently.
Thanks.

How to get ftp site username & password?
Desperately looking for firmware upgrade.
Thanks.

The old ftp Middle East & North Africa site link:

ftp://ftp.dlink-me.com/DLink_ME/DIR/DIR-456u/

now has been replaced by:

ftp://dlinkmea.com/ftp/DIR-456U/

but there isn't any firmware file to download.

You can report this lack to your local D-Link:

and also to:

We hope rafik23 has a firmware backup so we can upload it in our forum for everyone it need. And also if you receive a firmware file from your local D-Link.

I have Dlink DIR456U wireless routers at 5 locations. All routers date expired on 31-12-2012.

I don't understand what you mean. A 3G router hasn't any expiration date. Probably it may refers to SIM expiration date so you have to handle this stuff with your 3G SIM local provider.

Did you contact your local D-Link to have a new firmware update as suggested previously?

Hello Everyone,
My problem is still not solved. I have Dlink DIR456U wireless routers at 5 locations. All routers date expired on 31-12-2012. I bought in November 2012 from local dealer. How to make its date 2013 and above? If not possible, means throw all 5 routers? It means the routers are useless after 2012 year? All my customers are desperately waiting for the date update.
Please help me to keep the routers working.
Thanks.
