I need some help...
I have an E2500 v3 with DDWR v24-sp2(05/19/15) from Fractal. I upgraded flash with tomato-E2500v3USB-NVRAM60K-1.28.AT-RT-N5x-MIPSR2-3.4-138-MEGA-VPN.bin from https://advancedtomato.com/downloads/router/e2500v3

The flash said it was successful and I waited approx. 5 minutes.. I then did a 30/30/30 Reset and reconnected to router Gui. Apparently it didn't take flash because it still showing DDWRT gui with same flash version v24-sp2. I've tried this multiple times and the router shows that its successful but the flash version never changes. Can someone help me with this please.


If you want to go use tomato, you should flash stock first.
It's not a good idea to go from 3rd party firmware to 3rd party.

Put linksys firmware back on before going to tomato would be wise choice.

Hello,

I made another mistake handling one of three of my E2500 family. In fact I was moving back to dd-wrt

I tough was handling the V2 but I accidentally connected the V3 to flash.

After following the guidelines step by step, using trailed build 21061 first. Then just dumped 33772 and ups, three hours later is nicely working and doing WDS.

I did not flash the special build for v3 and had no problems at all.

Note: Router had tomato before but I did no flash stock prior to move to dd-wrt
