Help: firmware upgrade =/

[Erwin]

I tried to upgrade my firmware from 1.9.7.0 to 1.9.7.2 I knew I would have to use restore after the upgrade through the web interface but I never got there =/ After the upgrade I never get a local IP. It will just loop my Internet through the router to my laptop so my laptop has the external IP. So i tried resetting that didn't work. So I unplugged the power and then back in that didn't work.

So now i saw some topics about the pin 9 trick. But can someone explain how that exactly works?

If yes , maybe Asus support can help you just i will write little:
go to you local-connection and change your TCP IP settings Manuel to
ip: 192.168.1.3
mask: 255.255.255.0
Getaway: 192.168.1.1
and then OK
now you can go to WL-500g unplug , press reset bottom and then plug the power again wait (hold it ) 6 sec.
go back to you PC
run Asus firmware Reconstruction toll and ...
