I did a bit of guessword with Sash's vauge contribution. It's a router model created by a company called EnGenius.. I'm guessing the hardware is similar or something.
Either way.. I couldn't EAP-9550 v.24 sp2 - build 13055 on the website and I wouldn't know what to do with it if I did. So, Sash, I ask again, what can I do to get this working?
I'll be honest here.. I'm getting a little impatient with this. Can anybody be bothered to get this working? I'd love to have another DD-WRT router around the house, but if nobody can be arsed, then I'll just throw it away.

as it says you'll need the web factory version. I followed first set of instructions. You'll need toe to hex edit the router id string using xvi32 or anyother editor and change it from 600 to 615 and replace the b at the end with 00 in the code. Already done in the attachment below.
Had a problem port forwarding as the ranges weren't working say i wanted 15000 to 15001 forwarded i had to do individual forwards for each, rest is working fine after 20 mins of testing ...

here the official one with updated model string _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking? Sounds like a Mac to me.." - Louis Rossmann https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL_5YDRWqGE&t=60s
Hi guys,
I have a DIR-615 which I want to stick DD-WRT on. I have a few so not afraid of bricking them
I've download the factory and the dd-wrt web flashes from the attachments above but when I go through the web page and upload the image (I've tried both) the router comes back with "The chosen file is not a valid firmware image file."
I've looked at the instructions-I take it I dont need to do the hex conversion as that is already covered in these attachments? On the bottom of the router is says "HW/ver D2" Firmware " 1.00VG".
I got it as a freebie from Virgin Media.Any help would be apprieciated.

**update**-should have tried this but used the Emergency Room Web Interface and it worked first time. Looks great and now away to have a play. I will update on how stable it is and how things go
I pushed my reset in for 3-5 secs, tried 192.168.0.1 on the web interface and I just get nothing till the router boots with the login screen.
EDIT: Actually, scrap that question. I used j911's attachment and got it working without having to use Emergency Room.
Everything appears to be working okay! The power light goes off after a little while .. Not sure why that is.. Everything is great though! Quicker than my WRT54G!
I managed to flash 3 of these routers as I want to try out WDS/Mesh. First impressions are they work ok as an AP but I spent hours last night trying to get 2 of them to talk to each other via WDS-no joy. There was some weird bridging going on ( connecting wireless to Router A I was getting the DHCP IP address from Router B!)But when I went to look at status/Wireless page there was nothing showing up on the page to say it was connected.I tried LAN and Lazy WDS but nothing concrete.
However, when I then used a WRT54G flashed with DD-WRT, it was picking up the WDS signal from one of the D-Link-but nothing again on the D-Link page ;-(
The other thing I noticed was that when WDS was enabled, it became very diffcult to get an IP address wireless=on ethernet, it was fine
So in summary, it looks good on the face of it but as for using them in a mesh/WDS enviroment,not very hopeful.Any tips/tricks please send them my way!
One thing I did notice (and this might be me) is the wireless client/wireless repeater bridged modes aren't working correctly for me. Anybody else know of this?

Ill check this out-I think this didn't work for me either last night.I didn't get to bed till 0130 so I was a bit frazzled!
Hmm yeah .. I think this particular hardware setup has a little bit of a problem with client-based modes. I think I stumbled across something in the wiki about it.
