Also I would like to search the database for the best hardware to buy! Ex: "8mb flash 32 mb ram" or simular.
This would greatly help in deciding which new router to buy.

Or maybe choose which feature-set of dd-wrt I want to run, and show a list of best supported hardware.

My 2 cents.


I agree, the new beta database site is just a bit oversimplified. I come to the list when ready to shop as well as for support issues.

Installed my first dd-wrt a couple of days ago on a DIR-300. Working great so far. Your new database made it very easy to check whether the router was supported.

There was one hiccup while uploading the new dd-wrt firmware linked on the database page for the DIR-300; it caused the router to restart every 30 seconds or so, and the web interface was not accessible. This thread describes someone else having the same issue:

http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=47159

In the above thread, a post by ppeter suggests that the linked firmware in the database is likely broken. He may be right.

ok guys, here's the moral:

the 'DIR-300 v24 SP1 build 10020' linux.bin file that is currently reachable through the 'hardware database' page (http://www.dd-wrt.com/routerdb/de/download.php?file=451) is seriously BROKEN ! Don't use it !

Instead, get http://www.dd-wrt.com/dd-wrtv2/downloads/stable/dd-wrt.v24%20SP1/Consumer/Dlink/DIR-300/linux.bin

which works correctly


The file he linked to works fine.


This issue is fixed.

For the Linksys WRT600N versions 1.0 and 1.1, the database needs to link to the initial install file with the required signature for flashing over the Linksys firmware:

I have a Linksys wrt54gs version 7 router. I want to modify it so I can connect it to a computer and have internet in a different room from my modem.

Which firmware do I need to download?


dd-wrt.v24_micro_generic.bin

dd-wrt.v24_micro_olsrd_generic.bin

vxworkskillerGSv7-v3.bin

vxworksrevert-GSv7-v3.bin

tftp.exe

^^^These are the ones to chose from^^^

I've tried them on several different wnr834bv2's and all received the same result. I had to short the tsop pins to get it to accept a tftp flash, or resort to jtag

Yes, it is important to note which build to flash on this device. Bricked a router by not looking closely.

Any of Eko's svn builds work fine. The standard stable build does not.

Here is 1 mistake, 1 addition, and 2 suggestion regarding the supported hardware list:

wbr-2310 hw A1 has 2 MB flash
AR2316A
25P16V6P 2MB flash chip according to http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=224324&sid=c8d72209816b4e23f4d5d68047d6ba94
PSC A2V64S40CTP 8MB of RAM
4 100MB LAN ports
1 100MB WAN port
5 volts 2.5amps
FCC ID: KA2DI624D2
when I opened this device the PCB has DI-624 Rev D1 printed on it
Currently the supported hardware pages lists this as a not possible but it really should be a not supported.

D-Link DI-808HV
RTL-8309SB
8MB of flash
64MB of RAM
I have a high res png of this board if anyone wants it.

Suggestion 1) Please consider making the text under supported and the text under the remarks column the same. Currently the remarks area has not supported and the supported column has no. The same is true for no support possible and not possible.

Suggestion 2) Give a reason for the not possible and the not supported. Is the reason a lack of documentation? a lack of a device to apart? 1MB of flash?

Thanks,

WNR834Bv2 still gives out a bin/chk combo that bricks this router.

I have a Belkin F5D8236-4 v3 that I bought to replace the Linksys WRT54G v8.2 that I partially killed updating to one of Brainslayer's PreSP2 micro builds (router booted, when applying changes the apply page was gone, and no interenet access).

This Belkin handles everything better, even bittorrent. The Linksys would slow down and require rebooting, even on the SP1 firmware.

I'm hoping that DD-WRT is built for the Belkin router because I miss the bandwidth usage page.

I would love it if the database could include the later BS/EKO builds that are known to work well with any given router, especially as more people buy the newer routers.

Include the new BS/Eko builds in the Database, that's the main issue!

The router database is recommending SP1. SP1 is crap. It doesn't work. And people load it up because the router database says to do it, and then it doesn't work. Because it is crap. And they have to go to the forum with their issue, and everyone has to tell them that "they can't use SP1...it's crap". And they say, "But the router database said to use it".

Steer people, at least with broadcom devices, to svn 11296 as the stable build. If they want a BETA build for wireless N or dual radios, they should be sent to something like one of the BS 1200xx builds.

The database does not list MEGA builds for the WRT54G-TM even though it supports them.
