Hi,
I have DIR825 B1 + DD-WRT 23194.
Printer : Xerox Phaser Phaser 3010
I am using for longer time, but the problem with print server was always there. Tried on WL520GU with DD-WRT working without problem.
Problem: When I put something to print, it will print whole document and then error light start bliking on printer.
When I click on cancel button bellow error light, it will print whole document again. I need to switch off and on printer, then is everything ok.
Had to revert to r23919. Wireless was unreliable. This appears to be the last good version. I'm just hoping it's not the version before Heartbleed was fixed... _________________ Netgear XR500

The day has come, I'm tired of rebooting my WRT54G. I was going to get the DIR-655 but found it's not ported so I'm going for the DIR-825 even though it doesn't support as many connections. Finding some used on eBay for about $25-$30.
Is it worth hunting for a revision C? Most I've found are B1, none are C that I've found as of yet, and one was an A. Any reason not to get a B1?
Is the wiki how-to up to date for this? It looks like r23919 is linked for download, should I use that or is there something better/more stable?
Finally, assuming I grab a B1, can anyone comment on VLAN? I've got port 4 on my WRT54G on a separate VLAN dishing out DHCP addresses and will need this functionality.
Thanks Drek. I saw you updated to 24160 and posted it was good, then a few days later posted you couldn't get a tab to connect and went back to 23919. I'll stick with 23919 then assuming a get a rev B.
Can you check for a VLAN settings page? On my WRT54G on DD-WRT it's under Setup > VLANs
Ya, the VLAN settings are under Setup/Networking. But I've never used them so I have no idea if or how they work. Someone else will have to answer that. And yes, the DIR-825 rev.B is a nice router - certainly the best I've ever owned. It has processor and ram to spare for DD-WRT. I get super low latency and it's very reliable. _________________ Netgear XR500

take a b1 over b2 if possible, everything seems the same but for some reason b2 have strange unexplained problems b1 doesnt have.
23919 is the latest with good working wifi with ht40, if you been following trac timeline. just dont ever touch 24160, that has broken wan/lan. rev c i know next to nothing about so i cant comment, but it does have doubled the ram & flash, with a questionably slightly slower processor, but its newer so if it's architecture is more efficient, it may make up for slower speed (same way as amd's athlons beat pentium 4) _________________ LATEST FIRMWARE(S)

So just dug out an old 825-B1... trying to flash r23919 per the Wiki instructions. I do 30/30/30, I get the blinking orange power light, I go to the firmware page as instructed... the factory-to-ddwrt file uploads to 100% (according to Chrome) but the power light never goes out as the Wiki says it should; instead, the power light just keeps blinking a slow orange indefinitely.
If I power cycle, I'm back to the original firmware (2.02 initially, now updated to the lastest build, 2.09).
I've tried in IE as well, but it gives me even less than Chrome - just says "waiting for 192.168.0.1", no count-up, no changes in the LEDs.
Is this fussy about the version of IE? Doesn't like Chrome? Or is there something else I'm missing?

setting the N band to 104
the signal stops and nothing
revert to Auto and still nothing
reboot and CH36 reappears.
dont use N-Only its still buggy, use Mixed or NG-Mixed, also channel selection is buggy with ht40 on builds >r23919 which is semi-fixed in later builds(2.4ghz only), just try every channel till you find a working one

try with firefox, for years its still never failed me when dealing with emergency loader (windows 7 ultimate x64), after flashing dd-wrt the default ip is 192.168.1.1 _________________ LATEST FIRMWARE(S)

That did it... kinda annoying, as I had to install a whole browser just to do this flash (haven't used Firefox in years).
Oh well, working now... I think I have another 825 kicking around here somewhere, too.
