Vera Edge UI7 - Serial USB Fix!!!

[jeylites]

Following @mjunqueira post on creating a Vera support ticket, I decided to do the same. The support team at Vera send me a link to do a firmware update that will fix the "Serial USB issue". I followed the steps and it has been working great for me so far.

Step 1

Do a Backup. Just incase it fails to update, you have your previous settings.

Step 2

Cut and paste the following hyperlink http://download1204.mios.com/firmware/os_mt7620a/openwrt-ramips-mt7620a-na301-squashfs-sysupgrade-107.bin into the “URL for OpenWRT custom firmware:” field (image attached) on the Firmware page, under settings and follow the user prompts.

Step 3

There will be two options "Backup or Update Firmware". ... Select Update Firmware.
Sit back, relax and follow the instructions.The whole process will take approximately 15 mins or less.

Step 4

Configure Serial Port and My Sensor

Cheers!

Please edit the title so you won't mislead people. This is actually the Vera EDGE usb fix, it only applies to those only. Using the link on Vera 3/lite will brick the unit.

We wouldn't want that.

@jeylites, sorry for editing your post.

@hek I don't think he'll mind I just wanted to clear things out :)

@hek oh yeah go ahead. Thanks for correcting the mistake. @CaptainZap

Can add that this worked for me as well, using firmware 1.7.1089 on my Vera Edge. Thanks @jeylites !
