So I installed the micro version on my WRT4GL and did the hard reset afterward and now I can log into my router and everything but when I attempt to change settings it just sits at a white screen and never actually updates. I can click through the menus as much as I want but as soon as I attempt to change something it freezes up I guess? Do I need to reset it back to the linksys firmware or is there something I am doing wrong??



Thanks,

30/30/30 hard reset before and after each upgrade.

Recommend you update to DD-WRT (standard)
http://www.dd-wrt.com/dd-wrtv2/downloads/others/eko/V24_TNG/svn11793/dd-wrt.v24-11793_NEWD_std.bin

30/30/30 hard reset before and after each upgrade.
Don't use any backup configuration files on this newer build enter your settings manually.


If you can't update using the GUI of DD-WRT then tftp the firmware.

It is likely a browser issue. Clear your cache, or try a different browser and you will likely find that it worked.

All this is explained in the peacock thread announcement

If you're running Macintosh, use Camino for your web browser. I haven't found one that works better with Linksys or DD-WRT firmware, but I stopped looking as there hasn't been any need to find better.

Of course just as I say this I found that a particular build in a Buff whr-hp-g54 wouldn't accept entries while using Camino. I also couldn't use the GUI to flash a different build. Firefox worked for entry, but not flashing so resorted to MacTFTP.

Lesson learned.
