Uploaded the std_Generic build (also 13064). Did a 30-30-30 reboot, and DD-WRT was running. Router rebooted to DD-WRT (that was easy!). Used the web browser to upload a mini-Generic release (happened to be build 13064, from the Router Database page). Signed on to the Linksys, did a factory reset.
#Wrt54g dd wrt latest firmware upgrade#
Failure to do so after an upgrade will result in unpredictable router behavior. all set Īfter every firmware upgrade, perform a full reset by depressing the reset button for 30 seconds on power-up.I selected the "restore factory defaults after flashing" option while doing this. Upgrade to DD-WRT v23sp2_standard_generic.I reset it to factory defaults with the GUI, although this step may have been unnecessary, since I'd just flashed it. Hold the reset button for 30 seconds (I didn't cycle power or anything else on the router.).I got the Continue page, but never got the DD-WRT GUI. Upgrade to DD-WRT v23sp2_mini_generic.Read the fine print carefully, as not all firmware versions work with all hardware versions. Upgrade to Linksys firmware version 4.21.1.Restore factory defaults with the original firmware.The following sequence was performed with the HTML GUI and Microsoft Internet Explorer Web browser: The original firmware (Linksys v1.00.8 Dec 24 2002) gave a "incorrect image file" error on on both the mini and standard DD-WRT v23 SP2 images. [Comment - n8hfi: On a very old WRT54G v1.0, I found it necessary to upgrade with a newer Linksys firmware before I could load DD-WRT.

NOTE: During configuration or while writing to Flash memory, the only things that should be hooked to the Linksys WRT54G router are the computer and power. There is high probability that you will brick your V1.x unit by installing it. WARNING - Do not use V24 RC6.X builds on the WRT v1.X units.
