Installation
Prerequisites
WARNING: There was a period of time that there were specific factory-to-ddwrt.bin files required; this should be fixed in current releases.

NOTE: 03-05-2020-r42617 is a known good initial flash build. See [1]
NOTE: See Where do I download firmware? for information on where to find firmware images.
- Download the factory-to-ddwrt.bin and dir880-webflash.bin files in the dlink-dir880l from the current release folder.
