Hell yes, been waiting a long time for a new build. Going on both my routers, though I secretly replaced my dad's GS with my Premium as main router so it may not get as much use
(There are just a few changesets out of the latest 250 that would make any difference on my routers.) _________________ Kernel panic: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!
My normal upgrade steps are:-
1. ssh thru putty into the box
2. cd /tmp
3. wget image
4. nohup write dd-wrt* linux&
5. mtd -r erase nvram
However, for this build, the putty session will be broken at step 4. After which, the router will reject any connection attemp (ssh/telnet) until it is rebooted.
Is this the expected behaviour?
I repeated the above process a few time with same results. In the end, I upgraded using the GUI firmware upgrade function.

I am using WRT300n v1.1, upgrading from 12874.
Yes. SSH is one of the processes that ends during a firmware upgrade to free memory. See this ticket.

SSH will not break if you use:
Code:
nohup mtd write dd-wrt* linux&
Please note the addition of the mtd command in the code. _________________ (05/02/17) std - 31924

Mega seems to be working fine on my new WRT300N 1.1, but I'm only using G clients. _________________ __________________________

severe slowdown while applying something that requires restarting wireless conectivity (changing txpower, rx/tx antenas, rate, network..). It takes up to 2 minutes to restore conectivity and to receive httpd pages from the device...
So we can continue using ssh
The "mtd write" does not free memory like "write" does and I also suspect it doesn't do any checking either....
Please add a comment if you agree. _________________ Asus RT16N + OTRW
