Sorry for such a newbie question , yesterday was a bad evening ..

I had openwrt installed but did not like it so i switched to my well known ddr-wrt
installing this version
https://dd-wrt.com/support/router-database/?model=WRT3200ACM_-

The router wasn't getting the wan ip via dhcp so after a few tentatives and supported by my headache i installed version

when restared and after the root passwd choice i was presented with an apply cgi error
The route is very very slow i can barely telnet it
no http running etc , it looks semi bricked but still accessible .. however no internet

Now what i can do to re-establsh a regular behavior ?
reinstall the best possible yet release via cli ?
should i get a wan ip via dhcp ?
can someone give me some directions .. ?

please save my router

'ubootenv get boot_part' then 'ubootenv set boot_part 1' or 2, alternate value returned from get, 'reboot'

or

There is a triple power toggle failover method to force switch the boot partition.
It is a pain sometimes to find correct timing, so here are alternate descriptions.

Power ON and when LAN LED is blinking immediately turn it OFF then wait at least three seconds, repeat.
Then power it on a third time and let it run.

Another visual cue is power LED blinks a few times then turns off for about 2 seconds, switch power OFF.

Each ISP setup is different but I use WAN connection type auto config DHCP (default) to a cable modem.
