Was on 30356 trying to flash 30471 couldn't do it over wi-fi. Only thing thats changed is openvpn and these firewall rules:

iptables -I INPUT -p udp --dport 68 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -i br0 -o tun1 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -i tun1 -o br0 -j ACCEPT
iptables -I FORWARD -i br0 -o vlan2 -j DROP
iptables -I INPUT -i tun1 -j REJECT
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o tun1 -j MASQUERADE

Could this be why I was unable to even upload the firmware? If so how and why?

1 Telnet into router
2 Login
3 Type:
cd /tmp (Enter)
wget <new firmware URL> (Enter)
mtd -r write <new firmware filename> linux (Enter)

Recommended to erase nvram before and after upgrade.

Lol, yes could do it like that but uploading it to the router through the webgui has never failed me before.
