Factory to ddwrt is for flashing from the Linksys firmware UI. The webflash is for flashing from within the dd-wrt UI. Read the threads in my sig to understand this router, its two partitions, and lots of other good stuff. Had you read them you would not be asking this question as you would know.
By the way, since you flashed the factory to ddwrt and then then webflash, I assume from within dd-wrt UI you have overwritten both Linksys partitions.

When I was doing the WRT's I always flashed from the Linksys partition using the factory-to-ddwrt file. No you do not need to do the webflash after installing the factory-to-ddwrt file. In fact if you do you will overlay the Linksys firmware. Did this process for over 3 years with various WRT's without any issues. _________________ Unifi Security Gateway:Unifi Firmware Netgear r7800:Voxel Firmware Modem:Netgear CM500V voice and Data.
