Reverting back to OpenWrt from DD-WRT

I switch between OpenWrt and DDWrt often with my wr841nd v7 and wdr4900v2.

From DDwrt to OpenWrt:

  1. Enable SSH in services tab of ddwrt.
  2. scp (winscp) openwrt-your-router-FACTORY.bin (factory not upgrade) to /tmp
  3. ssh login to ddwrt, cd /tmp
    mtd -f write openwrt-your-router-factory.bin linux
    reboot

From Openwrt to DDwrt:
mtd write /tmp/factory-to-ddwrt.bin firmware
