Hi everyone.

I’m looking for the full CFE (bootloader) dump for the Linksys E2500 v1 router (Broadcom BCM5357 SoC).

I need to reflash the device using an external programmer (CH341A). Since the CFE contains important parameters like MAC address, boardtype, and boardrev, I would really appreciate having a working and genuine dump for this model.

If anyone with a working E2500 v1 could back up their CFE using bcm_cfedump or another tool and share it, that would be extremely helpful :folded_hands:.

A full flash dump (CFE + firmware) would also work.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!

Linksys/Cisco E2500 for DD-WRT led me to Linksys/Cisco E2500 DD-WRT WORKING -Test Build Page 9 which contains the v1 cfe in the first post. Cool
