Where is the PLA4215 support?

gloglo

All informations are gone, no files on the FTP. Everything is gone?

Hello @gloglo

It is there, but you need to either show 100 items (because the firmware for PLA4215 is from 2017 age) or put PLA4215 in the search box.

Yes, Zyxel closed down their FTP server as it was not secure enough for browsers like Chrome to access it.

I hope that this is helpful.

Kind regards Tony

For those that still want to access the content of the ftp you can find its content from 2014 there:

Hello @gloglo

There is some Zyxel firmware available for download at their Swiss distributor see https://www.studerus.ch/de/support/downloadcenter/?typefilter=software&kwfilter=PLA42&utm_source=NL1604_CH-F_tech&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=NL1604_CH-F_tech_R_IMG-B_3-412_ZyXEL_PLA_Series_Software

Put PLA4215 into the search box.

Kind regards Tony

Thank you but there's no firmware for the 4215.
What is strange is that I can see messages (not that old) linking to the zyxel ftp. But when you go there, there's not even a single PLA folder...
It looks like Zyxel suddenly decided to erase everything for no obvious reason.

The user manual is easy to find but that page "HomePlug-First-time-PLA-adapter-installation" is a good summary.
I tried the config utility for another PLA that has not been forgotten by the support: PLA5456_V7.0.6.17.0926(Windows) and it detects the PLA4215.
