Installation Instructions
Step-by-step instructions from out-of-the-box factory firmware
DD-WRT can be flashed directly on the D-Link DIR-868L by using the D-Link webinterface:
- Download the needed latest beta firmware files (dir868-webflash.bin & factory-to-ddwrt.bin): http://www.dd-wrt.com/site/support/other-downloads?path=betas (e.g. betas › 2015 › 01-20-2015-r25974 › dlink-dir868l)
- Open the D-Link web-interface in your web browser (address: http://192.168.0.1), Log In, and go to Tools -> Firmware *Warning: only flash over an Ethernet-cable
- Select factory-to-ddwrt.bin and click the "Upload"-button
- After flashing successfully, the router address should be changed into http://192.168.1.1
- Upgrade the router (again) by using the dir-868-webflash.bin firmware
- Note: The router doesn't support Hard Reset (aka 30/30/30 reset), use the Erasing NVRAM method instead.
