I have had a Linksys E3000 running dd-wrt for about 5 years now; it has been running it like a champ.

One day, it decided to flash its power LED at me (other lights act normally), and web UI wasn't open. It wouldn't accept TFTP or ping either. I'm a little new to this so bear with me.

I connected through serial, and this is what showed. Nothing else happens after this (I waited a couple hours).

Code:

CFE version 1.0.37 for BCM947XX (32bit,SP,LE)
Build Date: Thu Apr 15 17:47:25 CST 2010 (ljh@team2-complier)
Copyright (C) 2000-2008 Broadcom Corporation.

Init Arena
Init Devs.

No DPN
This is a Parallel Flash
Boot partition size = 262144(0x40000)
et0: Broadcom BCM47XX 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet Controller 5.10.56.51
CPU type 0x19740: 480MHz
Tot mem: 65536 KBytes

CFE mem:    0x80700000 - 0x8079DAC0 (645824)
Data:       0x80732A20 - 0x80737080 (18016)
BSS:        0x80737080 - 0x80737AC0 (2624)
Heap:       0x80737AC0 - 0x8079BAC0 (409600)
Stack:      0x8079BAC0 - 0x8079DAC0 (8192)
Text:       0x80700000 - 0x80732A1C (207388)

Boot version: v4.2
The boot is CFE

mac_init(): Find mac [68:7F:74:C6:C7:CE] in location 1
Nothing...
country_init(): Find country code in location 0
The country is same
Device eth0:  hwaddr 68-7F-74-C6-C7-CE, ipaddr 192.168.1.1, mask 255.255.255.0
        gateway not set, nameserver not set
Check CRC of image1
  Header CRC:    0x1B036C74
  Calculate CRC: 0x1B036C74
Image 1 is OK
Try to load image 1.
Loader:raw Filesys:tftp Dev:eth0 File:: Options:(null)
Loading: Failed.
Could not load :: Timeout occured
Loader:raw Filesys:raw Dev:flash0.os File: Options:(null)
Loading: .. 5192 bytes read
Entry at 0x80001000
Closing network.
Starting program at 0x80001000


I tried to flash a normal Linksys firmware, but the router only downloads 1 percent of it then freezes.

Code:

CFE> flash -ctheader : flash1.trx
Reading :: CODE Pattern is CORRECT!
upgrade_ver[v1.0.6] upgrade_ver[10006] 4712_ver[0]


I have a new router on the way; I just hope to fix this one.

That doesn't look good; sounds like the flash might have failed. Neutral I presume you'd tried a 30-30-30 as part of this TFTP'ing?

Yeah, I tried that. I am also worried about a bad flash.

I have just been able to upload 6 percent of the firmware, but the router froze again.

What are you using to tftp the firmware image? The linksys client, or tftpd32?

NO idea what version of DD-WRT you've had flashed....

Not 'a bad flash'... I meant failed flash memory sectors. But ya, per kp69, knowing the -exact- file you're flashing might help. But OEM f/w failing... also a bad sign. Sad
