WRT54G Using Sveasoft Satori v4.0 Firmware!
Hello
Since I installed 'Sveasoft Satori v4.0 WRT54G' I cant connect to the internet.
After one day I decided to Intall again the latest version of the firmware
from the linksys website. In the middle of the upgrade it said 'firmware failed'
I then clicked ok and now I cant even go to the admin control panel.
I tried to renew IP nothing came up, Then I reseted the Router and nothing
comes up, when I check the lan IP its suppost to be 192.168.1.100 but it says
something like 168.245.165.1 nothing like 192.168.1.1.
Is there anything I can do to Install the latest linsys Firmware Again ?
thanks

"a failure in the middle of a firmware update leaves the router with no operable software"
Not quite true: The TFTP daemon resides in a protected area of the flash which isn't overwritten during a firmware update. It is possible to re-flash a "bricked" WRT54G with TFTP during the second or two that the lights are flashing on a power up. It takes a few little tricks to get this to work, but it does work. Go surf the forums at www.sveasoft.com for the details.
