I managed to brick my Netgear EX6200 in less than 24 hours after it arrived.

I flashed a generic BCM43XX image of OpenWRT.

It appears to go through a boot process and responds to pings on 192.168.1.250 for a few seconds during the boot process but it wont respond to TFTP.

I've removed the eeprom from the board and can read it fine in my TL866 programmer.

Can anyone help me with an unpacked .bin or .hex file that I can program into the chip directly with my programmer.

As a side note, 8M limits the functionality of the router and I'm wondering if anyone could help me with building a 16M image file, I can put a larger flash rom on the pcb if I can get a suitable image.

UPDATE: I took a guess and worked it out. For anyone with the same problem the offset to load a .bin image is 040000H, this wont work for a .trx or .chk image due to the extra header data.
