[edit] Atheros Based Devices (incl. UBNT)

Atheros based devices typically only have one version of the firmware available per model. The feature set in Atheros builds are generally limited by the amount of flash memory that a unit has. 4MB flash units have features somewhat similar to a Broadcom K2.6 mini version while 8MB flash units have features more similar to a Broadcom K2.6 BIG version, but the features will vary. 16MB flash units will have even more features than 4 or 8MB units while ≥ 32MB flash units will have the most features. Atheros builds are still pre-configured and specific to its unit, so features in one unit's version may slightly differ from another unit's version.

[edit] Broadcom Based Devices

Broadcom based devices have several different versions available to choose from. Consult Note 4 in the Peacock Announcement from the Broadcom forum for information about which versions can run on your hardware.

[edit] Notes

  1. Official dd-wrt builds by Brainslayer
  2. Eko specialized Broadcom Only Builds
  3. Smaller VPN JFFS builds used to be available for 4MB units at downloads/others/eko
    • This is not recommended, but search the Broadcom forum if trying to find some of these old builds.
  4. Only on DD-WRT v24 (8MB+ flash required)
  5. Apparently, IPv6-related features DO NOT work by default in DD-WRT v24: see IPv6 on v24
  6. Not available on VPN-builds for v24sp1: see for JFFS
  7. CFE Compressor needed to run: see this forum thread

To upgrade from the stock Linksys firmware, first flash the mini version from the web interface. After initial flash use any version, assuming it fits the flash size. Below are example file versions where <type> represents mini, std, voip, etc.:

filename description
dd-wrt.v24_<type>_asus.trx Web interface version for flashing. See Flash Your Asus WL-500G Deluxe
dd-wrt.v24_<type>_generic.bin Generic version for flashing via web interface on all supported devices (including Linksys WRT54G/GL/GS) and for flashing Siemens SE505 with boot tftp on 192.168.2.1
dd-wrt.v24_<type>_wrt54g.bin tftp versions for WRT54G. You CAN use this to flash via web interface but do so only AFTER you have done so using the mini version. These versions were just made specifically for TFTPing to those routers. (v5/v6 note: Since the WRT54G/GS v5-v6 uses a modified WAP54Gv3 once made 'linux ready', it will not accept these standard WRT54G/GS firmwares. You must use the 'generic' build for TFTPing to these units).
dd-wrt.v24_<type>_wrt54gs.bin tftp versions for WRT54GS. You CAN use this to flash via web interface but do so only AFTER you have done so using the mini version. These versions were just made specifically for TFTPing to those routers.
dd-wrt.v24_<type>_wrt54gsv4.bin tftp versions for WRTGSv4. You CAN use this to flash via web interface but do so only AFTER you have done so using the mini version. These versions were just made specifically for TFTPing to those routers.
dd-wrt.v24_<type>_wrtsl54gs.bin tftp versions for WRTSL54GS. You CAN use this to flash via web interface but do so only AFTER you have done so using the mini version. These versions were just made specifically for TFTPing to those routers.
dd-wrt.v24_<type>_moto.trx For initial Flash Your Motorola WR850G (Micro and Mini builds ONLY)

[edit] Notes

K26 builds do not have MMC/SD support yet.

[edit] Marvell Based Devices

Marvell based devices typically only have one version of the firmware available per model, standard (STD). The feature set in Marvell builds are the same for all supported devices, pre-configured and specific to them.

[edit] Ralink / MediaTek Based Devices

Ralink / MediaTek based devices typically only have one version of the firmware available per model, standard (STD). The feature set in Ralink / MediaTek builds are generally limited by the amount of flash memory that a unit has. 4MB flash units have features somewhat similar to a Broadcom K2.6 mini version while 8MB flash units have features more similar to a Broadcom K2.6 BIG version, but the features will vary. 16MB flash units will have even more features than 4 or 8MB units while ≥ 32MB flash units will have the most features. Ralink / MediaTek builds are still pre-configured and specific to its unit, so features in one unit's version may slightly differ from another unit's version.
