Sorry, my misinformation rhetoric was not directed at you, jdwh2. The information in the wiki regarding using older version backups applies to nvram variable changes and other gremlins, specifically. At some point, nvram backups now have a firmware version number in the filename. I have not seen any hard evidence that the firmware version number addition prevents using the backup on a different version of DD-WRT myself, but if someone can provide absolute proof, that would be quite welcomed.


when i restore via CLI nowadays, it just gives a warning that its for board xxxxx not tried on different board....yet Razz

And this proves what, exactly? That the DD-WRT version information doesn't prevent using an older backup file?

I found a github repo that saved a version and has been updating it (last update was 10 months ago as of this post).
That old project doesn't seem to have been updated in 9 years.

Take a look at nvram-save.sh discussed here. It comes with easyddup.
