hi all
i updated my wrt54g v2.2 today using dd-wrt.v23_wrt54g.bin, and i now get no log on screen when i use 192.168.1.1 .
For upgrading from the original Linksys firmware, please use the generic mini version, which i did not do. Is it to late now, please help...

I believe you posted in the wrong forum....
But anyway, have you tried a hard reset? Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds and wait about a minute for the router to cycle back up. _________________

Your troubles may not be over. The model-specific files are only to be used via TFTP, not flashed via the web interface. In my experience, if you flash a model specific file via the web interface, the router will brick when you do a power cycle.

look at my sign...all of them ...no one use generic version...still work until now (for GL)
but for safely..if flash via GUI use a generic version. Just do hard reset before and after flash the firmware _________________ 365'pc WRT54GL 1.1 + DD-WRT wds - client mode - client bridge
