[QUOTE="The_King, post: 933712, member: 88497"] Are you looking to extract the firmware from your device to analyze it for malware then you have to read the chip directly using a SPi USB BIOS Programmer. These programmers dump the entire contents of the EEPROM or ROM chip to a single file. I use a USB CH341A 24/25 EEPROM BIOS Reader/Writer to flash or extract firmware from older wireless routers and extenders and it works great especially if your device was bricked after a bad firmware flash. Once your device firmware is extracted you can usually extract it further with 7zip and have your Antivirus scan the contents for malware. [/QUOTE]
