I've noticed this with a stack of E1200v2's, E1500's, and E1550's lately. I'm wondering if broadcom-k26 series is broken for these specific devices. I then tried them on broadcom-k3x and they work gre ...

I tried the k3x edition of dd-wrt (build r29974) on my E1500 and the wireless completely stopped working on all 3. It also did something to the nvram so I had to do an "mtd erase nvram" and ...

This has nothing to do with a fix in openwrt, you are just lucky because openwrt kernel has a different size and the offset for roots is different then with dd-wrt. Thus with openwrt you don't run int ...

Could be a a series of bad sectors on the flash. Mine had the same issue. It would go fine, then when it was flashing a bad area, it puked and soft-bricked.

You will need a TTL-USB adapter and the ...

I have an R6300v2CH with a few bad areas on flash. I was able to get the recent OpenWrt build to flash correctly on it (which is further than I got in the past), but DD-WRT is still having issues up t ...

Well, after hours and hours of trying to flash dd-wrt or OpenWrt onto this R6300v2 (Charter Edition), I give up.

Every time I flash it, it comes up unable to mount root filesystem. With OpenWrt, it ...

If dd-wrt doesn't support it, it won't work. You can't force feed a build and expect it to work. You might wind up with a brick, unless you can JTAG/Serial it.

Bad spot on the chip. I picked it up for a few bucks. I checked it and it had a blinking power light. I figured a bad flash and someone ditched it.
