@jeff : I ran both commands: dmesg and cat /proc/mtd
I even tried the MTD command to no avail, risky but the modem still has DDWRT running.
@mk24 : I see this message in dmesg output: Creating 8 MTD partitions on "ar7100-nor0":
I guess it is safe then?
I have a WinXP VM and tried to revert back to stock on IE 8.. the process failed..still.
new users can only mention 2 other users
@ slh : Model D-Link DIR-825 Rev B1, i guess i should be more specific with FCC ids?
@ dlakelan : I do not think my router has TFTP mode.
