i have a internal firmware for the sparklan device too. will be released soon.
for the ca8-4 pro firmware. it is flashable on a ca8-4 too, but will not work since the ethernet will be dead then. i will work on a solution to make both compatible. _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking?

you need a tftp server and the zImage (which is basicly the original-to-dd-wrt.bin file
rename it to zImage and place it to your tftp server dir. then configure your local ip to 192.168.1.254 (which is the tftp server address required)
within the serial console of the ca8-pro you will be asked for several menu points. so press 2 if asked.
then it will be transfered and flashed new _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking? Sounds like a Mac to me.." - Louis Rossmann https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL_5YDRWqGE&t=60s
