The one from Windows? (un)fortunately I use a MacBook. I tried with a virtual machine but obviously it messed up. Now I installed Win7 in a partition and that may help in case.Originally Posted by wpte
have you tried the firmware restoration tool?
flashing might take a while with it, sometimes like 5 minutes
What i did has been to upload the fw from the web interface. it works fine (and fast) with the -d release. With the -rtn I don't know what it happens.
I managed to unblock the router using the wl500g-clear-nvram.trx and wl500g-recover.trx via tftp, fortunately I've found some instructions in the ww-drt site.
So, my only guess is that it really should take 5 minutes to install? How do i know if the firmware has been installed? I am not sure because I messed up, but I thought that in one try I left the router on for 10 minutes or so, but I can remember wrong. Anyway, what do you suggest? The Windows tool?
