NEWD or VINT

WRT54GS v1.1 uses the Broadcom BCM4712 chip rev 1 but since the "wl0_corerev" is 7 (see NEWD or VINT for more info) WRT54GS v1.1 users should use standard NEWD builds

Other Notes

[comment added 4/25/08 by WellingtonFelix] I installed the new version "dd-wrt.v24_mega_generic.bin" over default configuration of the version "dd-wrt.v23_vpn_generic.bin" and I had no problems.

[comment added 5/7/08 by Sapremias] Flashed dd-wrt.v24_mega_generic.bin directly from linksys web interface (version WRT54GSv3_4.71.4.001_fw.bin) without issue. -Sapremias

[comment added 10/5/08 by richwillal] I installed dd-wrt v24 sp1 Mega Vintage (dd-wrt.v24-9517_VINT_mega) from stock firmware with no issues. Standard process: 1) Reset router - reset for 30 secs w/ power on 2) Upload dd-wrt 3) Reset router - reset for 30 secs w/ power on 4) Disconnect/reconnect or ipconfig /renew

[comment added 04/02/09 by tribble222] I nearly bricked my router going directly from Linksys firmware to dd-wrt.v24-11296_VINT_STD.bin. Pinged on boot but tftp wouldn't work. Router didn't even respond to JTAG. Shorting pins 5&6 with the router unplugged somehow fixed everything. From there I was able to flash to mini, then back to std.
