Firmware v1.8.1.1 BETA

[oberlegy]

The firmware restoration tool searching for a Wireless device, but I'am just using normal LAN, and I have any wireless device.
How can I downgrade the firmware ?
Please help !

why did you upgrade in the first place?

I've flashed my router with the beta firmware but missed the print support in Oleg's firmware.. And I successfully flashed back to Oleg's firmware with the Firmware restoration tool.

I first flashed the official firmware using the Firmware restoration and then flashed back again to Oleg's firmware.. so it is possible..

To be able to use the firmware recovery tool you have to reset the router the following way: Switch of the router, hold the reset button at least for one second while switching the router on again. Now the power led should blink and now you are able to use the firmware recovery software.

Good luck.

My only problem with this firmware is with the printer, I have a HP laserjet 1100. I can only print small documents. I can see that does not load the whole document to the printer. I upgraded because I also had problems with 1.7.5.9-2. Hope someone can fix this. Now I cannot through the IE interface method, downgrade or upgrade to that other new beta version.
Just let me say that this forum has helped me a lot to work around some issues on the router. I am just a nebie in this stuff and don't know much about it.
Thanks to all of you.

With original firmware and 1.7.5.6 ASUS firmware included two independent firewall for LAN and WiFi. The 1.8.1.1 includes only one firewall.
It is normally ?

I did the following:
"reset the router the following way: Switch off the router, hold the reset button at least for one second while switching the router on again. Now the power led should blink and now you are able to use the firmware recovery software."

So I don't understand, what happens ...
The firmware restoration tool gives the following message:
"Connect to the wireless device ... 1 sec, 2 sec , 3 sec " etc...
This take up to 31 seconds.
Then the following message is appear:
"No wireless device in recovery mode is found"

My question: What kind of wireless device it find and why ?
Do you understand it ?

How is your host connected to the Asus WL500g?

My machine was plugged into the first LAN port of the router when I used the Firmware restauration..

Hi,

i tried the "off - reset - on again" method and the pwr led did start blinking, but i get the following message from software: "Upload failed, please check your connection...".
Is there any other condition for using the restoration tool ?
