I just bought this router but I'm not able to flash it with factory-to-ddwrt file. It's stucked at flash prompt but always at 0%.
What can I do now? There is somethink wrong with this device?

few dumb questions:

Link to the exact version you are using to flash?

How are you connected to the router?

What browser are you using?

Does this browser have anything disabled (such a javascript) or adblockers?

Just to clarify a bit. Is this a wired or wireless router connection when trying to flash,
Use a wired connection only.

Use Firefox ESR without ANY addons and just it's defaults to do these things to exclude any addon/or other causes like customs browser setups.

Finally, consider TFTP to flash the factory to dd-wrt file.

We eagerly await your feedback. Welcome to the forums btw Wink

I managed to flash it using a wired connection and using Edge as browser. Thx for the tips

The current build is now at http://ftp.dd-wrt.com/dd-wrtv2/downloads/betas/2022/05-30-2022-r48996/

Will mark this thread as solved.
