hello
i currently have a WDR3600(V1.2) running build 21061, i tried to update the firmware and it bricked it Sad . I've unbricked it and its back running 21061 Very Happy .
I've read around on the forum for a post about this and can't find anything that answers it.
basically i want to update to a newer version;
what is the procedure of updating (webGUI or ftp)
And what build would you suggest i use?
thanks alex

Hi,

Try build 27506. It's the best one I have ever installed on my devices (I have one 3600 as well).

As for the flashing procedure, try to reset the router to the default settings before the update. It should be fine.

Just wanted to say thank you for recommending this build. I've tried on my 3600s many newer fws but all of them gave me reboots after 4-16hrs of uptime (I run them WDS AP/Sta mode). The list of fws tried and failing:
- 30731
- 31277
- 32170
and some others I didn't even remember.

33006 seems to be most stable for me, all versions after this one are not stable and several new bugs have been introduced.

it is strongly advised to disable the "Shortcut Forwarding Engine" , unless you really need it.

33345 is stable on the WDR3600 v. 1.5 as long as you disable Shortcut Forwarding Engine.
