EDIT: I am also interested if your large data transfers are more reliable. I never had the problems others were reporting with the V1, V2, or now an E3000. It may be because I run a bigger power supply.
What power supply are you using coz im thinking do the same with my v2.

4.5A is the maximum the transformer can supply, but it will only ever supply as much as the router needs. As long as the voltage and polarity matches it should cause you no problems.
I'll be converting my WRT610N v2 tomorrow when there's less people around to complain about the internet going down :)
==========
Finished with my upgrade, though I did it slightly differently :D
Instead of SSH and WinSCP, I enabled USB + NAS and copied the modified CFE to the Samba share. From there I moved it via telnet from /mnt to /tmp (Probably not necessary, but I figured better to have it in memory) and carried on as per the guide. _________________ Netgear R7800, 45036 (18/12/2020)

Has anybody successfully converted a wrt610n v2 CFE using the version 20 CFE mentioned at the start of this thread yet?
Is it just an issue of finding the correct offsets for MAC / PIN / Serial or is it a deeper issue of the V20 CFE not being compatible with the wrt610n at all?

Had a brief look through the v20 CFE and I can't see anything that looks like the MAC or Serial Number, I assume it works but you'd need to set a startup script like some of the WAP54G units.
Not worth the hassle if the v19 works fine, anybody know of any improvements/changes? _________________ Netgear R7800, 45036 (18/12/2020)

I just tried this and it worked perfectly. In the end, I flashed the dd-wrt.v24-15778_NEWD-2_K2.6_std_usb_nas-e3000.bin firmware but was wondering if I can flash to the dd-wrt.v24-15778_NEWD-2_K2.6_mega-e2k-e3k.bin or the dd-wrt.v24-15778_NEWD-2_K2.6_big-e2k-e3k.bin if I choose?

Oh it most definitely is 100% compatible with the WRT610Nv2...it was given by Cisco Linksys to test out the E3000 fw on WRT610Nv2 units prior to the model series launch. There are no offsets due to it being flashed from a special version of Linksys' fw that obviously read all that data from existing CFE and put it back in the correct places when updating to the E3000 CFE (make sense at all? lol)
If I had a WRT610Nv2 to work with, I could easily properly get the MAC/serial offsets from the E3000 v20 CFE, but alas I do not.

here is a V20 cfe for an e3000. Macs, serial, and pin are in the location stated in the 1st post. I do not know what makes the V19 & the V20 diff as far as code & logic goes but using a binary compare, they are quite diff. _________________ [Moderator Deleted]

Is it possible to go from a converted e3000 with v19 CFE to v20 directly? _________________ E3000 (converted from WRT610NV2)

Sure.. Just make sure you erase nvram after flashing the cfe, before booting the router. Remember it will now take some time to boot so do not panic. leave it alone.. _________________ [Moderator Deleted]

My router was rock solid before and still is.
