I'm seeking confirmation that you can reflash a Linksys WRT54G3GV2-VF with a 30/30/30 hard reset.
My Linksys WRT54G3GV2-VF wouldn't boot after a sysupgrade. The power LED wouldn't stop blinking. After re-reading the wiki page, I was under the impression that I would have to open the case and attach a serial console.
Nevertheless, I tried this:
- Push the reset button for 30 seconds with power on
- Turn off power and keep reset pressed for another 30 seconds
- Turn power back on and keep reset pressed for final 30 seconds
- Just before releasing the reset button, start a TFTP client to put a (factory) image to 192.168.1.1 (in binary mode)
The TFTP file transfer was successfull. The router booted with the newly installed firmware.
Can anybody confirm this works before I dare to put it into the wiki?
Thanks, maf
