Hi. I'm having a problem upgrading dd-wrt firmware.

I have a TP-Link TL-WR2543ND router currently on the 24461 build.

I tried installing build 40559 and 37305. Almost every time I get the "upgrade failed" message. Two times it said "upgrade successful" but when the router rebooted it was again the 24461 build.

I followed the instructions for the upgrade. Also disabled the antivirus, tried different browsers, cables, etc.

I read that the build 24461 has the problem with reverting to factory image and that installing older image might help. I thought to try that, but I can't find the older build.

Do you have any suggestions what should I do?

I really need the firmware with fast NAT because I upgraded my connection and my router just can't keep up.

Download links to builds are here: https://wiki.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Index:FAQ#Where_do_I_download_firmware.3F

Also, try Command line upgrading / downgrading: https://wiki.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Installation#Method_3:_Flashing_with_Command_Line

Thank you very much. Command line upgrading did the trick.
