Hello. I have the router
TP-LINK TL-WR940N ver 2.1
FFC ID: TE7WR941NXV5
I try to upload the dd-wrt firmware to the router by web interface and always get an error. I investigate and i asume that is because i had the ultimate router firmware that check the header in the se tion 0x00 and at 0x20200. I verify this and its true. the hexdump command confirm this. (source: https://github.com/xdarklight/mktplinkfw3/blob/master/README.md)
But i cant patch the factory-to-ddwrt.bin to get worked. (I patch it with the firm sign but when i look to put the second in the factory-to-ddwrt.bin file has not place and i think that i will do disaster)
Can someone give me a version of the factory-to-ddwrt.bin patched for my version of the router or maybe a WW version? that i can upload to the web interface, pass the validation and permite me to put the factory-to-ddwrt.bin without the check??

What are you running hexdump on?
Provide a pointer to where stock firmware can be downloaded, a stock firmware that you know can be flashed onto your version of WR940N. _________________ Kernel panic: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!
And i cant. I run hexdump on the "_wr940ndv2_wr941ndv5_en_3_16_9_up_boot(150311).bin" formware, detect the header 0-200 and 0x20200-0x20400
(I attach the tp-link firmware)
do you know how to insert the 2 headers in the dd-wrt firmware without getting the router brick? Or maybe a firmware that has the 2 header that installed dont verify anymore that information when i try to install the dd-wrt firmware?
Thank you very much. I apply the firmware that some one fix it with the corect header and then reflashed with the las version of the dd-wrt for the router that they say that it was compatible.
I would like to know how the person make that flash with the hacked header. I will ask him.
Thank you very much. Again. You are my hero for today!
