Whew I wouldnt recommend it, the GUI fucks up pretty bad after rebooting the router it took me forever to get it to switch partitions. _________________ Downloads:

Of course, I updated before reading this
Downgrading via web interface didn't seem to work either (nothing happened when hitting the "upgrade" button),
so I copied the previous ddwrt-*-webflash.bin to /tmp on the router and did a
Code:
mtd -f write ddwrt-*-webflash.bin linux
and rebooted.
I think I just killed my router - it's not booting and the power LED is only blinking.
Does anyone know how to recover from this?
There should be a way to boot from the second partition, right?
Ooh, just saw myself buying a USB/Serial cable...
Quickly turning the power off and on again 3 or 4 times switches to the other boot partition.
I'm back in business...

Manually switch the router from primary to alternate partition or vice versa [backup] partition:
Power off router with power switch.
Turn power back on and Power LED will light.
As soon as all LEDs turn off (~2s), power off router with power switch
Turn power back on and Power LED will light.
As soon as all LEDs turn off (~2s), power off router with power switch
Turn power back on and Power LED will light.
As soon as all LEDs turn off (~2s), power off router with power switch
Turn power back on and allow router to fully boot.
It should now be booted to the alternate firmware partition
Just a added note here, It can be finicky just keep at this and it will go your gonna get some frustration...

I think I'll leave this release alone, and stay at R40134. My deepest thanks for the heads-up(s). _________________ Router: Linksys WRT1900ACSv2

Hold the reset on the back for 10 seconds, and if no response just unplug the power from the back of the router turn off the switch wait 10 seconds, and plug in, and power on. Only if it's not a extreme brick it should revert back to Linksys factory firmware on its own.
I took my firmware way back to r36247. Scary up here in the new build zone! Watch your router closely with every upgrade if you see the white smoke pull power quickly!
