Hello, i need some help
my WRT54GV2.0 is a brick,
I have access to the ping and the power light is flashing.
but TFTP does not work and no JTAG solution via IEEE1284 available.

you better consider an upgrade, as the post price will buy you a new second hand, better router

If France wasn't so far away, I'd offer services. I still see a lot of WRT54* and WAP54* and their clones in service and NIB for sale.
thank you very much, it is true that we are very far away. it is a pity. thank you again. _________________ WRT54GS + DDWRT V24beta (current)
