Hi all,

Currently own an EA 6500 (v2) and I am interested in putting this firmware on the router in hopes to extend the range to another room in my house.

I am new to dd-wrt however I have done flashing of firmware before so I am not totally out of the boat. From the list I see provided on the website I need:

ea6500v2-
build 23194
20131222

However I've been unsuccessful in locating such files. Finally, I have updated the firmware of the router to the latest released by linksys, 1.1.40.166281 will that cause any issues?

I was able to download the first "Initial" firmware but every time I update to the second one it freezes and goes all the way back to stock. Any ideas?

Also, can't do the "code" that he posted there as it returns the error that other people had for the 32k thing. Any workarounds?

Install the initial twice first.
