Hello everyone.
I'm catching up with my Buffalo router WZR-HP-G300NH A0D0;
I was using Buffalo firmware 14998b, the last official who had good LAN connectivity which I tested.
I upgraded to 37305 suggested in the Router Database.
Since then I have lost the possibility to upgrade/downgrade.
I have normal access to webgui, but I do not have telnet or ssh access;
When trying to upgrade via webgui, the router restarts in the first seconds of uploading either by cable or wifi. I tried all the methods I found, tftp suggested on the wiki, pumpkin, with switch, without switch.
I do not know of any method any more.
Version 37305 also has LAN connectivity issues; I use the router as an AP wired, so this version has no functionality for me.
Thanks for any help!!
Make sure to go back to Buffalo factory firmware first. Then go to DD-WRT (using a factory-to-ddwrt file). _________________ Before asking a question on the forums, update dd-wrt: Where do I download firmware? I suggest reading it all.

Thanks Ian.
After many many attempts I was able to upload the firmware via tftp.
It is again in 14998b, functioning normally.
If someone have a A0 D0 version running stable with more recent build without losing LAN connectivity, please tell me.
Thanks again!!

@Amon49 I've been running DD-WRT v3.0-r30082 std (07/01/16) on a pair of WRH-HP-G300 and it's been rock solid.
Config includes a large # of static IP addresses, extender/bridge, wired connections as well as access control. I have had some issues with Access Restrictions not turning off at the correct time, but other than that it's been good.
I was looking for a newer version that may fix the Access Restrictions issues when I saw your post.

Thanks for the tip Mitch.
I'm going to test, although your model is a bit different from my WZR. These Buffalo routers are very solid and have great signal. Great weeK!!
