any adviceon how to go back from dd-wrt to buffalo firmware.
I have followed all the guides, run in ubuntu used tftp all to no avail. is there something i am missing or cant this be done on this router ?
I have a WHR-G300N V2 and have downloaded the first of these files, the webflash multi.bin. Can this be uploaded to the router (which currently runs Buffalo firmware) via the Buffalo web interface, or should I use the TFTP method shown here? Do I rename the .bin file .tftp?

Thanks - all installed and working now. Setup was a bit haphazard as I didn't know how to configure wireless bridge mode, but somehow against the odds it's working. I now have 2 wired clients connected to my primary router wirelessly via the Buffalo.
I'm just wondering, does buffalo_whr_g300nv2 apply to EU version too? I have "G300N v2 EU" and would like some success confirmation before flashing my own (brand new) router.

Thank you!
I have a WHR-G300N V2bought from the U.K. but I do not see it mentions EU on the label. It came with a rather nifty plug which converts between EU standard and U.K. plugs. DD-WRT appears to function fine on it (but my use is limited).
I would have thought that the hardware is the same.
Look at the product label on the router it should say:
WHR-G300N V2
FCC ID: FDI-0910561
IC: 6102A-027
If all matches then I think I would take a chance. Made sure you have a copy of the current firmware so that going back is a possibility.
thank you for the quick reply REPASSAC!
When I get home I will confirm if the above match or not.
Just FYI, on Buffalo USA forum, they say Japanese hardware/firmware is different and Japan product sometimes have stuff that USA/EUR versions do not have despite they are the same model...

Thank you. After checking the labels I decided to cross my fingers and flash the router.
It went smooth (using webflash), no problems at all.

I've partially bricked (isn't that like being partially pregnant?) my whr-g300N V2. I tried to load BrainSlayer-V24-preSP2/07-16-10-r14815 (WebFlash)with the Buffalo utility and ended up with what appears to be a mostly dead router.
The good news is that it responds to a ping at 192.168.1.1 with constant ttl values of 64. This gives me hope that it can be revived.
I tried the Draytek upgrade utility with the BrainSlayer MULTI version with no luck (constant timeouts).
