Need help on OpenFirmware

JunkBear · Feb 20, 2016

Hi.

Long time I did not post but I need some help here to save the router of my aunt. She dont have money for now to buy another one so I will install DD-WRT on it.

Linksys WRT54GS V7.2

On the page you see I have the choice of 4 downloads so which one I should choose and why?

Thank you.

its critical you follow the instructions when working with the WRT54GS
READ http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/How_To_Flash_the_WRT54GS_v7 i MEAN IT READ THE ENTIRE THING OR YOU WILL BRICK IT!
you WILL need to use TFTP to flash this router if you don't understand how todo that then do not flash it
there is a very good chance you will brick it even if you do everything correctly the WRT54G is very temperamental

download vxkiller and ddwrt_micro_generic and tftpd32 http://tftpd32.jounin.net/
basically the process is this
Do a 30/30/30 reset
direct connect the router to the computer set a static ip of 192.168.1.2 and a subnet of 255.255.255.0
flash vxworks killer from the webgui
wait 5 WHOLE MINUTES
setup a tftp server and select the folder where ddwrt-microgeneric is (make sure its in a seperate folder from vxworks)
power off the router and power it back on it
wait for it to flash (5 to 10M) DO NOT power the router off
enjoy ddwrt
*flashing ddwrt is not gonna magically make that router any less of a pos REPLACE IT)
