OpenWrt Linksys E3000

Hi everyone,

I'me new to OperWrt.

I have a Linksys WRT610N v2 converted to Linksys E3000 as detailed here:

I now have this firmware on it:
Firmware: DD-WRT v24-sp2 (12/24/10) mega

I have dowloaded the OpenWrt image:
openwrt-brcm47xx-generic-linksys-e3000-v1-squashfs

Can someone tell me how to flash it?

Thanks a lot!

Openwrt support for broadcom routers is poor. You may discover the wifi does not work with OpenWrt!

DDWRT or Tomato (Shibby, FreshTomato) is best for broadcom routers imho.

If you must install Openwrt onto E3000, you may need to return to stock Linksys firmware first.
