In Inspect Element in Chrome for the Routing Type box I can change it to enabled=enabled
and the Routing option gets Enabled. However the change is short lived bcos after you close the session it's back to disabled state

Hi, noob here. I just checked and my SSID settings are still editable on my ZTE router.

My router is still on version V9.0.10P1N12A. When I got my router, the first thing I remember doing was deleting the TR-069 profile from WAN and creating my own PPPoE profile. Is this why my router isn't updated to the latest firmware?

Is there any disadvantage to being on an older firmware or should I allow it to be updated to the newer one and bear the brunt of locked settings?

Thanks in advance.
 
There definitely is a disadvantage to using older firmware versions, the most important one being security patches. Even if they are released at a snails pace, it is better than never receiving them.
But in the end, you need to decide what your preference is: patched firmware or unlocked settings.

Also, I think we should be able to update the firmware after unlock. But not sure how or whether it will lock the device again
 
after reset my router by airtel my 100 mbps upgrade to 300-400 mbps for 2 days,after mixing 2.4 ghz and 5 ghz mostly time 2.4 ghz connected because 5 ghz auto disconnect after some weak range this is not good with 100 mbps plan point range is better than 2.4ghz with 3 signal why airtel why are you doing this
there is other option for separate 5ghz turn on ssid 6 but ssid 6 range is low compare to 5 i noticed it .
 
If SSID5_5Ghz is locked/disabled for anyone, then go to Local network -> WLAN -> WLAN Band steering and turn off "Bandsteering Enable". SSID will be unlocked after this.
