After a reboot, my router is now unable to save settings. It reverts to a reset state promting "Thanks for purchasing ASUS Wireless Router. Do you want to start Quick Setup directly?"
After setting all my security options and so on, I finally press Save&Restart. It then restarts and the message appears again. I use Oleg's firmware 1.9.2.7-6b and have never had any problems with it. I have also tried the new from ASUS, downgraded to Olegs again and tried the clear-nvram.trx procedure. Nothing works. I am not sure how the startup script should look like, but I get these messages from the startuplog: (possible errors in boldface)

Is this a possible hardwarefailure? I found a post with a bootloader problem. If this is the case; how do I reload the bootloader?
Any help appreciated,
