You should have used the dd-wrt.v23_generic.bin, the documentation states that the dd-wrt.v23_wrt54g.bin file is for upgrading via TFTP. Then after upgrading you are supposed to do a hard reset by pressing and holding the reset button for 30 seconds. If you had read the instructions you would have known this.

With the tftp program you use dd-wrt.v23_wrt54g.bin

With the router GUI you use dd-wrt.v23_generic.bin

Have you tried loading the page in your browser and pressing F5 to clear the browser cache?
