I took a look at a Sonicwall PRO 200 today. The previous owners of the unit stated it had intermittent problems. My first thought was to wipe it clean with the factory defaults and then check to see if there were any firmware updates. If you have one of these units, be careful. So I reset the unit to the factory defaults, and connect over the console… and the console is down. Then I go to the default web based tool, and it prompts me to upload a fresh firmware and states the loaded firmware is corrupt. No problem, I think to myself. I’ll just go to the manufacturer’s website, download the latest firmware, and load it in there. NO. Sonicwall no longer lets just anyone download firmware anymore. So I create and account and login, but still no way to download. I try to add the product via the serial number, and their system responds with a message that the serial number has already been registered to someone else. Well of course it has, this is a hand-me-down unit. Since I can’t bring myself to throw a possibly workable piece of equipment away, I’ll just keep struggling with this thing. I found one for sale on ebay, and asked the seller if they would burn me a copy of the install cd. Hopefully I can turn a stone and find some firmware squirming about. Thanks for nothing Sonicwall!

In reference to your sonicwall issue, there is a very simple solution. Create a mySonicwall account if you don;t have one, email a photo of the units serial number together with your mySonicwall user name, and request it be moved to your account. By sending the photo you satisfy their legal requirements as it show you are in possession of the unit. Takes them 2 days to do, but once done you can access the latest firmware which was available to your unit when it was under warranty.
Neat huh!
Cheers,

Thanks MarkG! I’ll have to try that out. I had emailed a few people on ebay to see if they would mail me a copy of the manufacturer’s original cd but didn’t have much luck at the time.
Cheers!
Don’t suppose you ever got a firmware did you?
At present i have a brick (don’t know password or even ipaddress)
if you could email me it (if you did get one i would be grateful).

Dean,
I did not get the firmware for my sonicwall yet. I did create an account at their site, but I did not go any further then that as MarkG suggested. One of these days I do need to get around to fixing that (or tossing it)!
Good luck, I’ll let you know if I get off my duff and get it.
Cheers!
Alex
sorry lost your email address. I have a little file to send you

Hi people
I have just got hold of a sonic wall pro 200 having the same problem the last guy has reset it so now it says “The current firmware file appears to be corrupted.”
I have setup an account with sonic wall and tried to register the hardware but can’t because it’s already been registered
If that’s not hitting a brick wall I don’t know what is!
Is there anyone out there can HELP!
Jas
Not sure if anyone is still following this thread. Here is what I did to two Sonicwall’s. I sent an email to register@sonicwall.com asking them to move the registration from the currently registered owner to myself. I provided my newly created “myaccount” and subscriber ID which came in the “myaccount” email confirmation. I sent them pictures and serial numbers. It took a while but they did it.
Apparently Sonicwall is required to make firmware downloads available in GB.
Found this link to their website in England that has firmware for out of support appliances and does not require a login.

I too am looking for the latest firmware for a tz170 series firewall
it was purchased second hand and already registered. still waiting for sonicwall to switch registration over to me…
I found how to login to the pro-200
Use the setup tool and defualt the firewall at 192.168.168.168 at subnet mask 255.255.255.0
Go to your TCP/IP Props and set your pc for
192.168.168.200
255.255.255.0
Use http://192.168.168.168 to login…
Mine asked for an upgrade firmware……I flashed it using the firmware from your site but they both keep asking for the firmware after the flash..
Any questions or if you want software…gmfaw1@cox.net
Hi Folks.
Has anyone located the Sonicwall SOHO TZW Firmware update as yet ?
I would really appreciate it if some kind soul could forward it to me please.

I wasted 30 minutes on the phone with them trying to get them to give me firmware. they of course, would not. So I tried to be sly and start a partnership with them in order to get the information I needed. No dice.
Tanks for putting this up! A life saver for my client, he never documented the password for the device, now I have to blow it away.
I have a TZ150 that blocks Bonjour communication preventing apple devices from talking w/ each other (appletv, itunes, iphone).
I read that the 5.2 firmware fixes this (currently at 3.8).
Was extremely dissapointed to see the hoops one has to jump through to get updated firmware… rediculous. Pay once and then pay again.
Tried many of the steps people above did, register, told unit already registered.
This is not my router, rather I am attempting to fix it to please a client.
grrrrr
I really don’t know anything about these units. i do still have the one that I re-flashed. I should sell it and get it out of my hair.

Could you email me the pro 200 firmware? I am having the same issue that Rob is having. What version is your firmware? Has anyone done anything positive with their brick?
thx
I bought a pro4060 second hand and had no trouble registering it, it did come up and say it was already registered but I just did what MarkG suggested and they transferred it to my account.
If you look on the mysonicwall site it even gives instructions about sending a photo of the serial number in if its already registered.
I also need the firmware for pro 200, could you email me also? chiawei333@comcast.net
Im in same boat as others with the Sonicwall 200 pro. A usuable firmware would be appreciated or a website that hosts the firmware.
