Is there any way to flash WR840N v2 with WR840N v1 DD-WRT firmware ?
Thanks

TL-WR840N v2 is not listed on the Suppport Device List: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Supported_Devices so apparently it is not supported by dd-wrt. It is not wise to flash a TL-WR840N v1 firmware to a TL-WR840N v2 as they may have different hardware. There are even 2 different versions of v1, one is the China Only v1 version which use Atheros CPU and is supported by dd-wrt and the other one is the non-China only v1 version which use Broadcom CPU and it is not supported by dd-wrt as far as I know.

Hello there!

I'm posting this here since it took me a while to find a DD-WRT image to flash my WR840Nv2 router successfully. I found this one:

Here is the link to the .bin image:

It's working very well so far.

You should be able to upgrade dd-wrt using the webflash file in the 841ND v9 folder. See the link in my signature for download locations.

I have attached a modified factory to dd-wrt file for the 840N v2 EU. I have not tested it. It is based on the 841ND v9 file.
