Haven't seen much official, or even unofficial info on this router. I just picked one up and have had issues with it dropping wifi, but had doubts as to it being a hardware issue. It was being extremely problematic today, so I decided to bite the bullet and attempt a ddwrt install. I installed v24-RC6 generic mini, and so far so good. It's detecting it as a WRT300N, however everything seems to function so far.

So, it would seem it's compatible, however as far as I know, I'm the first person that's attempted this. What do you guys need from me in order to make this officially supported? Any way I can help, I'd be more than happy to.

All LEDs appear functional...I have power, wifi, and internet. Ethernet LEDs light up too.

Good, I will upload here one new build to test.

try this, see if it gets detected as wrt160n.

hi Eko, i also managed to get dd-wrt.v24R6.2_mini_generic.bin working on my wrt160n, i was wondering what would dd-wrt.v24-9326_NEWD_nokaid.bin add or fix ?

Thx.

[outphase84]

Apologize for the delay, I've been extremely busy the past few days and haven't had a chance to flash the new firmware. I'll try to do that tonight.

So far everything is great though with v24 rc6 generic.

by the way i have a problem with the channel setting, i set it to 9 and it shows 9 in the wireless setting, but the status page shows 1 and my client are on 1.

I kind of need it because i will setup 4 of those on the same network and i need them to be all on hte same channel.l

Any idea how to fix this ? is it due to the wrt160n not been fully supported ?

Otherwise it works well

thx

I have a 150N and the following process fixes the channel 1 deal on it...give it a try:

I am also an owner of a Linksys WRT160N and I just flashed it with the bin file that Eko provided.

DD-WRT now detects the router as a WRT160N.

I will try those terminal commands and post a reply.
