The flash size is probably only 2MB in which case it can't run dd-wrt.
List the numbers on U6 if you want the flash size confirmed.

That is a 2MB flash chip so no dd-wrt support possible for that model.

Thanks a lot LOM , but I tried google the chip number but I didnt get any information, how do you know 2mb size of chip ? Also the dd wrt depends on processor ( broadcom in my case ) or the U6 chip ? whats the u6 chip called ?

Many thanks
