Now i will flash a ddwrt firmware on this Router. Can you help me which ddwrt firmware is the "best" firmware for my R6400 Router?
I will not brick my Router. Can i flash for example a ddwrt firmware file with wifi connect on the laptop? Or i must connect my laptop with the LAN Cable to my Router an then flash the ddwrt firmware?

I connectet my Laptop with the LAN Cable on the Router and make a factory reset on the Netgear Gui. Then i flash this file "dd-wrt.K3_R6400.chk" on the Netgear Gui and the DDWRT Gui automaticly restartet?
And then on the DDWRT Gui make again a factory reset. Thats all?

Once you're running DD, for updates you can log in over telnet/ssh and wget the firmware and manually flash it. I think the Kong firmware's ddup utility does this; regular BS builds do not have 'ddup'. But yes from OEM (and DD GUI) you definitely should use LAN cable. _________________ #NAT/SFE/CTF: limited speed w/ DD#Repeater issues#DD-WRT info: FAQ, Builds, Types, Modes, Changes, Demo#

Did you issue nvram erase or erase nvram? If it's the former then you did nothing. _________________ R6400v2 (boardID:30) - Kong 36480 running since 03/09/18 - (AP - DNSMasq - AdBlocking - QoS) R7800 - BS 31924 running since 05/26/17 - (AP - OpenVPN Client - DNSMasq - AdBlocking - QoS) R7000 - BS 30771 running since 12/16/16 - (AP - NAS - FTP - SMB - OpenVPN Server - Transmission - DDNS - DNSMasq - AdBlocking - QoS) R6250 - BS 29193 running since 03/20/16 - (AP - NAS - FTP - SMB - DNSMasq - AdBlocking)
