does it mean we can forget about ddwrt on existing hardware?

EA9300

The EA9300 looks nice.
4 Cores @ 1.8 Ghz Drooool

The routers from linksys (except the wrt line) are locked down from flashing custom firmware from the WebGUI.

Hooking a serial cable up is a different story.

for what its worth... the refurbs are ~$65 right now

is anyone willing to buy a "sacrifice" so these could be opened up?

And another source. This info is really not that hard to find. Google is your friend!

Hi
EA9200 succesfull flashed to DDWRT using ASUS RT-AC3200 DDWRT firmware.

flashed procedure (Use ASUS RT-AC3200 DDWRT firmware)

https://serialize.wordpress.com/2017/02/01/linksys-ea9500-stuff/#flashing

Command :
From CFE prompt execute following. Where 192.168.1.10 is where your tftp server is running.

flash -noheader 192.168.1.10:/asus_rt-ac3200-firmware.trx nflash0.trx

Also you may want to update odmid, model, partial boots and boot partition using


nvram set odmpid=ASUS
nvram set model=RT-AC3200
nvram set bootpartition=0
nvram set partialboots=0
nvram commit

I would think that once you've converted it, flashing upgrades would be done the normal way, but it sure would be nice to have it detected as an EA9200, as I am sure that it's being detected as the ASUS RT-AC3200....
