hi,
i experimented with a new dd-wrt version on my wl-500g and after reboot my router did not respond anymore (power led on, radio off, connected lan on) and is not pingable
it's a wl-500g with dd-wrt 2.4 on subnet 192.168.100.*
so I tried the standard procedure with clearing nvram, recovery and a new firmware -- did not work:
1) when I enter recovery mode, the router is not reachable under 192.168.1.1 (power led flashing slowly, radio off, connected lan activity)
2) I have to set a manual IP adress in the original subnet e.g. 192.168.100.10 and the router to 192.168.100.1 to reach the router in recovery mode.
STRANGE: now the router is pingable both 192.168.100.1 and 192.168.1.1
3) the firmware restoration util cannot upload the clear-nvram, it detects the router but stops after 2 seconds and seems to reboot the router.
4) also tried tftp (both 192.168.100.1 and 192.168.1.1) but the upload times out....
5) also tried the long recovery (read somewhere in the forum) but this didnt help either....
any ideas???? would the pin10 trick help?
help is kindly appreciated!
cheers, thomas.
