Linksys WRT600N
Flashing
Step 1: Read the Peacock thread first!
30-30-30
As always make sure to do a proper 30-30-30 before and after updating the firmware. This is not an optional step!
Flashing DD-WRT
Download this WRT600N mega version, which contains the special header information required by the stock Linksys firmware. Then, reset your unit to factory defaults and flash it via the stock web interface. Reset your router to factory defaults after flashing. You can then flash what ever version of DD-WRT you want to the router. Please note that some people have experienced an issue with this DD-WRT mega build when trying to flash a new version of DD-WRT using the Firefox web browser; a connection timeout error occurs. Using Internet Explorer seems to resolve the issue and allow flashing of a different version of DD-WRT.
Reverting to Stock Firmware
Simply reset and flash the stock image via TFTP or through the web interface. Make sure to reset after flashing.
Known Bugs
Initial Flash May Not Work / TFTP problems
Some users may experience "Failed to Upgrade Firmware" messages when upgrading via Linksys web interface, even when using special 600N-specific builds. Also, TFTP may not work after the router has booted (Linksys fw only). The solution to both is to initiate TFTP within 3-5 seconds of power-on.
