heres my short story... i had dd-wrt with sp23 running on my router fine. I decided to upgrade to v24 and it was working for sometime before it stopped working ( i figured out maybe i should have cloned my mac address to fix that problem). Anyways, i reverted back to the linksys firmware from their website and was trying to reflash dd-wrt... but everytime i try to upgrade the firmware (starting with vxworks_prep_v03) the browser says "connection interupted" or something to that effect. I have tried with both IE and firefox. Plus, i tried getting some internet through my linksys firmware router and it doesn't work... any suggestions?

Did you follow the revert process for a V5/V6 unit. You can't just put linksys firmware back on a V5/V6 dd-wrt loaded router. You have to use a revert process found here.
yes i did follow the instructions... the linksys firmware loads the router's pages and stuff when i connect to the gateway.. but i doesn't let internet through and i can't flash it back to dd-wrt
