Unfortunately I think that I have bricked my router this morning, trying to change a release with a problem of static ip for an another that works better.
I think that even if I do a 30/30/30 reboot, to have install a wrong .bin of the firmware broadcom_K26 don't work.
Currently, I got only an orange led power, and I can't ping my router when I connect my laptop with an ethernet cable and configure manually the dhcp server.
So what do you could say me to solve my problem ?
Open it ? If someone could explain me with precision I will be glad!

I always get this during pinging 192.168.1.1, when I configured my macbook with a connexion :
ip address: 192.168.1.10
netmask : 255.255.255.0
router : 192.168.1.1
During the ping do a hard reset 30/30/30. Same response that below, I displayed only the 50 first, but all the others are the same.

So I suppose that my router is bricked, I hope I will be able to reuse it soon
What do you think ? This is critical ?
Can you help me to do a reset with the JTAG method ? I never do that before :/
Doesn't look good, but I would try again with a windows computer, wired to the router. I find it easier to understand ping responses with windows, especially windows XP. All the links you need to all the directions you need are in note 6. _________________ SIG:

Ok I will do it again this evening when I will found a computer with windows.
I'm ok about note 6, but there is no explaination about my router WNDR3700v3, I didn't would like blow up my router..
Start with describing the mistake that you did to brick it. What did you do? _________________ SIG:

So all version that I tried to install was from broadcom_K26 directory.
1. I installed correctly release 21286 mega on my DD-WRT (after installed mini version.)
2. After some weeks I see some problem with static ip, that I can't fix it.
3. So I tried to install version 22118 mega directly with firmware update. I did a hard reset 30/30/30 before and after. After I was not sure so I do a second hard reset.
4. When the GUI restarted, I was always on version 21286, so I try to install version 21676.
5. Then after thehard reset, no more GUI, no more wiresless : amber led power.
After som tried, to restore (2 hard reset + 1 reset) it didn't work.
Yes, I have. Google dd-wrt serial recovery.
Also look here for the pinout http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=690967
It's the 6 pads where the ground is in black, the one just below it is either rx or tx and the one right above the red one is either rx or tx. I can't remember which.
You will also need one of the adapters listed in that post. _________________ I am far from a guru, I'm barely a novice.
Oh great ! So, I hope that tomorrow I will be able to repare my router..
I solder an adapter USB-to-TTL using my laptop usb port to communicate with my router. It's only 4 wires (3.3V, GND, RX, TX) connected to an USB-A connector.
I checked, my laptop send 3.3V and my adapter works fine !
So I will check your topic, thanks. I will write what I want to do..
Maybe could you told me if this is ok ? (if you have time..)
