Thanks for you info.

But after flashing, I think it's bricked~ The Lan light was keeping on and off after power was on. I would try to un-bricked.

BTW,I was still wondering which version of dd-wrt should flash on my router~


@tzjwxpre

sorry for the bricking.

All my steps are under serial console. If you find your router serial pin define and have the connector, you may try my steps.
I post my steps to unbrick below.

1. You need to have TFTP server for updating.
http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/TFTP_flash#TFTP_Tools

2. Connect the serial and run terminal utility,(57600)

3.Power on the router, and enter the uboot (press "4").

This is my uboot message (I bulid my own uboot)
Code:
U-Boot 1.1.3 (Mar 19 2010 - 10:55:07)

Board: Ralink APSoC DRAM:  32 MB

Please choose the operation:
   1: Load system code to SDRAM via TFTP.
   2: Load system code then write to Flash via TFTP.
   3: Boot system code via Flash (default).
   4: Entr boot command line interface.
   9: Load Boot Loader code then write to Flash via TFTP.

You choosed 4
4: System Enter Boot Command Line Interface.

You may check the env setting by enter "printenv"
This is mine.
Code:
RT3052 # printenv

RT3052 #


4. Erase the flash

Enter "erase linux"

Code:
RT3052 # erase linux

 Erase linux kernel block !!
From 0xBF050000 To 0xBF3FFFFF

 b_end =BF3FFFFF
Erase Flash from 0xbf050000 to 0xbf3fffff in Bank # 1

 erase sector  = 12
sect = 12,s_last = 134,erase poll = 983162

 erase sector  = 13
sect = 13,s_last = 134,erase poll = 972194

 erase sector  = 14
*sect = 14,s_last = 134,erase poll = 953137

 erase sector  = 15
sect = 15,s_last = 134,erase poll = 935511


5. Erase finish, reboot and upgrade the "asus-to-ddwrt.trx" (press "2").
and follow the instructions to enter ip,filename and upgrade the flash.

6. Good Luck !!


Attachment is my uboot file, you may upgrade it if you want. (press "9" on uboot)

@changeway

Thanks! It's unbricked. I flashed bk to ralink firmware 3.3.0.0.

Now, I am still seraching a version of dd-wrt with USB port working! I've tried your suggesion (asus-rtn13u version) but can't work. Lan port will keep on and off. If you get any idea for me, please advise me~

I setted Tx Power to 25 and it still acts like as 71. I read somewhere that Ralink datasheet is 14Dbm, which is 25mW.

Secondly, I'm currently using it at dd-wrt Repeater Bridge mode, attached to my main router via wireless, and works flawlassly. But When I restart my main router, dd-wrt don't connects automatically again, I have to restart dd-wrt manually(power off/on). Are there anything I can do?

Hi,

does anybody have boot loader file that I can use? I have a Ralink RT3052 with a Ralink RT2860V2 wireless interface (not sure about the wireless interface) bought form dealextreme. The same router as mention in the first post in this thread.

1) I don't know if the TX power adjusting up/down actually works. I have my AP/RB's set @ 100mw but have no way to tell actual power output. It has not affected performance - i.e. - there has been no degradation of router operation

2) I have to do the same. I reboot the main AP, I have to power cycle the RB - I think it will connect on its own, but I thought I read somewhere it could take up to 5-10 minutes to re-connect on its own. Maybe sometime when I'm bored I'll try and test out if this is true or not.

Yeah, I have a couple extra WHR-G300N's for 'testing'

14144 seems to be the current stable build for these.

Newer builds are sort of acting flaky.

14144 is fine for me, but others are still reporting I-Phone / I-Touch issues.

ATVATOR,

How did you flash that wive-ng firmware to the WHR-G300N?

I've tried multiple builds - it won't flash.

Did you have to hex-edit the file?
