Hello all;
Noobie question:
I've been using dd-wrt firmware on my Buffalo WBMR-HP-G300H since I bought it.
Yesterday I've noticed that the Buffalo released a "professional" version for WHR-HP-G300N model. Can I use that firmware on mine since the firmware is based on dd-wrt?Is this possible?
Thanks in advance
Current firmware:
DD-WRT v24-sp2 (04/01/13) std
(SVN revision 21153)
Want to upgrade to:
WHR-HP-G300N Professional Firmware
Ver.V24-SP2 build 19154
You need to revert somehow to stock firmware and then flash professional buffalo version
Search about dd-wrt_webrevert and try with revert file first[/list]
So you are saying this is possible if I can "somehow" revert to stock. Then the crossflash?
And for the switch, are those working gigabit after flashing to pro firmware for WHR-HP-G300N?

Thank you mate
Yes, that is what I said. Read about tftp server and flash fresh buffalo image. Very rarely is possible to flash stock over dd-wrt because dd-wrt web gui uses checksum before flashing so it accepts webrevert file(special checksum), not random one.
I don't know about buffalo firmware and switch speed, sorry. I can help you with reverting and flashing buffalo firmware, not more because I am not familiar with buffalo routers

Thank you,
I think there is a misunderstanding. I have WBMR-HP-G300H not WHR-HP-G300N. I want to interchange the WHR-HP-G300N's originla dd-wrt firmware. And which I learned so far it is not possible to revert the WBMR-HP-G300H' dd-wrt to stock firmware which is not dd-wrt. If these methods may work I will definitely try.
Thanks again mate
Sorry, I don;t understand at first time. Are you sure you can flash another firmware file on different buffalo device. If the professional firmware is not for your router(it is for another model) please don't flash it

Yeah that's the main point of my post I wonder if it is possible since the profirmware is a dd-wrt build for Buffalo routers.
Thanks anyway

As I said don't flash firmware which is not for your router unless you want to trash it. If your router is not gigabit then no way to do it whatever firmware you use bacause the hardware is unsupported with this performance.
