-I had an awfully difficult time doing serial recovery on this router. It was my first time so you can imagine that I had no idea what I was doing. There are some slight deviations from the standard serial recovery procedure that is in the Wiki so I decided it would be a good idea to add the information here. First of all, the pinout is the same as the E2000 (at least for the E1000 v2). +Once at the CFE prompt '''you need to assign an IP/Subnet mask to eth0'''. I'm not sure if eth0 is the routers interface to the switch or one specific port but I had a '''CAT5 cable hooked up to port 1 on the router''' and it worked.
-You should familiarize yourself with the [[Serial Recovery]] article before trying this, I'm not going to explain everything again here.+Type ''ifconfig eth0'' to show no address assigned to the interface. This will assign an address/mask:

-Looking from the back of the router you should see the 2x6 JTAG port and above that 5 holes. These 5 holes are the serial port. Again, '''looking from the back of the router: VCC - RX - TX - ? - Gnd'''+==JTAG==

-Barryware, using a mixture of perseverance and brilliance, has found a way to fix the fact that Linksys, in for completely baffling reasons, did not connect the jtag port to the processor. This isn't for the faint of solder, but there IS now a way to jtag the 160nV3 and the E1000_V1! See this:+

E1000v1 thread for information and DD-WRT compatibility: Linksys E1000 now supported (V.1 ONLY!)

[edit] Install Procedure

  1. Read the Firmware FAQ and Peacock Announcement.
  2. Download a trailed mini build (mini_e1000v1.bin) from the broadcom_K26 folder.
    • Do not use a build bigger than 3712 KB (3801088 bytes)
    • If you wish to experiment with a newer build, read it's build thread before flashing!
  3. Set a static IP on your computer e.g. 192.168.1.7 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0
  4. Connect an Ethernet cable from your computer to a router LAN port and disable wireless
    • Recommended to disconnect other cables.
  5. Perform a hard reset.
  6. Navigate to http://192.168.1.1/ for the Linksys web GUI
  7. Go to the Linksys Administration->Firmware Upgrade page. Do not give the reboot command. You will use this page to upgrade your firmware.
  8. Browse to the downloaded firmware and click Upload.
  9. Do not touch anything. The page will tell you that the upgrade was successful and the router is now rebooting. Your router may take upwards of a couple minutes to reboot. Watch the lights... once the wireless and power indicators are on steadily for several seconds, your router is fully rebooted and you can click "Continue" in your browser window.
  10. If the DD-WRT password change page displays, your upgrade has been successful, and you must now perform another hard reset. This time, when you navigate to http://192.168.1.1/, click "Reboot" and wait for the router to come online again so you can configure it.
  11. For upgrades use any non-trailed and non-nv6xk builds (e.g. K2.6_mini.bin) no bigger than 3712 KB (3801088 bytes)

If the DD-WRT password change page does not display, your page request times out, or you can't ping 192.168.1.1, make sure both wireless and power lights are on steadily first, then do a hard power cycle (unplug the power from the router--do not do a 30/30/30 reset). Wait a few seconds and plug the power back into the router. Wait until both wireless and power lights are on steadily, then navigate to http://192.168.1.1/ in your browser of choice again. If the DD-WRT password change page displays, your upgrade has been successful, and you must now perform another hard 30/30/30. This time, when you navigate to 192.168.1.1, click "Reboot" and wait for the router to come online again so you can configure it.

You can also flash the same firmware of TomatoUSB as described for WRT160N_v3.0

Firmware version 33555 dated 10/20/17 runs on this router, but doesn't have the final Broadcom fix for the KRACK vulnerability in WPA2. KRACK fixes for Broadcom were completed in ​SVN 33678, but build 33679 is missing many files, so it is recommended to use 33772 or newer, after reviewing New Build threads.

[edit] Performing a Hard Reset

Procedure for an E1000v1:

  1. Perform a normal 30/30/30 reset.
  2. Login to http://192.168.1.1/ and you will see the Linksys - Management Mode page.
  3. Click "Reboot" then after a moment, you will see "Command reboot completed." and reboot again.
  4. When the lights return to their normal state, click "Continue" to the router GUI main page.

[edit] Serial Recovery

First see Serial Recovery and reference the serial pinout (E1000v2).

Once at the CFE prompt you need to assign an IP/Subnet mask to eth0. I'm not sure if eth0 is the routers interface to the switch or one specific port but I had a CAT5 cable hooked up to port 1 on the router and it worked.

Type ifconfig eth0 to show no address assigned to the interface. This will assign an address/mask:

CFE> ifconfig eth0 addr=192.168.1.1 mask=255.255.255.0

Now you can flash using a TFTP client from a computer, plugged in to port 1 on the router (Serial Recovery):

flash -ctheader : flash1.trx
