Talk:Hard reset or 30/30/30
From DD-WRT Wiki
If resetting is so important, why is the default to not reset when installing new firmware?
Firmware Management
Firmware Upgrade
After flashing, reset to (*) no reset
I've upgraded routers to new firmware without resetting the NVRAM, successfully, several times. I guess its risky, but not that risky. I've never bricked a router. --MrElvey 02:28, 3 November 2009 (CET)
