in my E2500 router, how do I perform the 30/30/30 ? there are 2 reset button? the one with besides outlet for adaptor and the other is in the below of the unit?
sorry, first I upgrade my E2500 to the Latest Orig Linksys Firmware which is posted to this board.
after upgrading to the Latest Orig Linksys firmware 1.0.04 something, i restore it to factory default.
from Latest Orig Linksys Firmware, I attempt to upgrade firmware dd-wrt.v24-18625_NEWD-2_K2.6_mini-nv60k.bin but in failed.
so reboot then, restore to factory default(Orig Linksys 1.00.04), then tried the dd-wrt.v24-18625_NEWD-2_K2.6_openvpn-nv60k.bin then it failed again...

I have the same issue , I tried the dd-wrt.v24-18625_NEWD-2_K2.6_mini-e2500.bin firmware.
Selected firmware upgrade from the stock netgear webui, once the flash was done, did the 30/30/30 reset and now my router is in a continous bootloop. If I time it perfectly I can get the login screen to display but then the router resets. Is there a way to recover or do I need to go the jtag route or worse is my router bricked...

You should be able to use TFTP and ftp up the original firmware image.. I have not had either issue, however I went from factory to mini-e2500.bin as that has the correct code pattern, after that you can upgrade to any the supported nv60k build.
I would recommend putting your computer to 192.168.1.5 and then run a ping flood to the router once u get a ping from it start the ftp transfter
tftp -I 192.168.1.1 PUT FW-E2500--XXXXX.bin
once you get a successful upload then you are set, then all you need to do is wait until it boots and the power led goes solid.
Alright, so I uploaded the stock firmware, using tftp. Do I just wait until the power LED goes solid or do I reset it manually?
EDIT: NVM found the TFTP recovery instructions. Just need to wait till the power LED stops flashing. Should take about 3 minutes.
EDIT2 : I've been waiting for over 5 minutes the power LED is still flashing, if I manually reset the router, it is still stuck in the reboot loop, anyother ideas...
EDIT 3: Waiting for over 20 minutes, the power LED kept flashing and I could still ping the router, the TFTP recovery guide says the router should becoem unpinga-able for about 3 minutes, that never happened to me. I guess mine is bricked.

Nope, unplug and plug back with ping flood going, once you get first ping hit Enter on your TFTP window and send the bin up, u should see the lan light blinking like mad, then you should be good in a few minutes after that... if not repeat until u catch it.

I caught the tftp upload window. I get the upload successful message and then the power led starts blinking. but it keeps on doing so. I've tried a bunch of times, no dice.
