I've successfully installed DD-WRT on my Linksys E1700 from the Router DB -> factory-to-ddwrt.bin
Followed instructions from the Linksys E2500 to the letter, worked absolutely perfect, no issues, rebooted straight into dd-wrt. Flashed with Win 7 / Internet Explorer 8 (dont laugh! seemed like the most compatible). Dont see router version... might only be v1 released. Also didn't find original firmware version before flashing, sorry.

Sorry for necroing this post (a bit), but can anyone confirm if the issue is with having Linksys firmware 1.0.01 on the router? Just to clarify, version 1.0.01 is the update that came out on 11/14/2014. Thanks!

Just bought a e1700 with firmware version 1.0.01 and I'm having the same issue. Cannot install dd-wrt.
Did you follow the e2500 instructions and use the factory to ddwrt file in the router db?
Tried following it. However 30/30/30 reset did not work. Router became unresponsive with no ping responses. Had to power cycle after the 30/30/30 reset.

Nopes, used Firefox on Mac. Will borrow a friend's Windows laptop to try it with IE.
