Topic: WRT54GL Safety of nvram mtd erase

The content of this topic has been archived on 31 Mar 2018. There are no obvious gaps in this topic, but there may still be some posts missing at the end.

Hello,

Just a quick and simple question, can anyone please confirm if it is safe to erase the nvram (mtd -r erase nvram) on a WRT54GL v.1.0 AND v.1.1.

I've checked the wiki, but there's conflicting information...

Thanks in advance,

ralish

yes , this leave the minimal nvram variable to openwrt can work

I can confirm the WRT54Gv4 is safe (exactly a WRT54GL v1.0 I've always heard).  I do it religiously when flashing anything new for the most repeatable start point (and un-DD-WRT'ing it smile ).  My WRT54GSv3, also.

The discussion might have continued from here.
