https://download1.dd-wrt.com/dd-wrtv2/downloads/betas/2022/05-03-2022-r48786/broadcom/ https://imgur.com/OtPj0rh
but every time i flash it nothing happen and i cant enter the web gui. i waited for 30 mins but every single of this build is not working(see the attachment).I do hard reset 30/30/30 before and after i install the latest build and i use TFTP and Web Gui to flash it. the only one works is the old build (DD-WRT v24-sp2 ((08/12/10) micro - build 4929 ).

i am trying to flash new version because of the router kick my device and can't enter again then i need to restart the router to login back, it happens when my device is idle.. hopes anyone can help me.. thank you
Always use special firmware built for WRH54G only, even for later GUI upgrades.
In other words, only use the files with WRH54G in the filename, nothing else. For flashing via webUI, I would suggest using Firefox ESR portable or Pale Moon portable. You can alternatively try TFTP or flashing via telnet/ssh. _________________ "Life is but a fleeting moment, a vapor that vanishes quickly; All is vanity"

Hello. I have a WRT54GL v1.1 router with firmware, I also have a problem, but not the same as yours. Upgrading from r48646 to r48786. Everything is loading well, but the menu says version r48494 (03/15/22) and no more. I have already flashed webUI (Firefox ESR portable) and TFTP in different ways. The result is the same. I can’t say for sure with what firmware it started, my hands don’t reach. I updated from this version r48425. Most likely the new version has not been uploaded to the site or something else

@ponching27: A serial log would probably help us know what's going wrong. I do not know if the developer even has your device in his possession for testing currently. I would try without doing any resets of any kind until *after* you have flashed a current build, and I wouldn't do a 30/30/30. I would recommend ~10 seconds via reset button or via webUI (Administration -> Factory Defaults) or via telnet/ssh: 'nvram erase && reboot'. The best thing to try is flashing via command line (telnet/ssh), since that will let us know exactly what is happening.
@KACTET: hijacking this thread with your issue after you've reported it twice isn't productive. Would help if you tried to re-flash via CLI or TFTP with serial console adapter attached to see if there is a firmware size issue or not.

the WRH files can only be flashed with tftp, from what i see here. it seems that i missed to include a web flashable file _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking? Sounds like a Mac to me.." - Louis Rossmann https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL_5YDRWqGE&t=60s

I will contact BrainSlayer about both issues.
i think flashing using telnet/ssh are complicated to me. i read the installation guide and make my head ache..

Thanks for your reply, you are kind
I'd love to flash with a consular adapter, but I don't have one:roll:
I just tried all the firmware from r48810 to r48494. All are of the same type and have the same firmware version, that is, r48494.
Starting from r48432 and going down, the versions correspond to the numbers
i tried this but sadly i dont get the result we want.. the upgrade never stop for 1 hour so i decided to stop the upgrade. after that i get blinking power lights. i dont know if i do something wrong then i reset it 10secs. i type the 192.168.1.1 then i see upgrade firmware and still the same.. thank you for your time sir..
