Procedure

  1. Connect your PC via Ethernet cable to one of the LAN ports (Ethernet) on the back of your router.
  2. Launch/open a web browser and enter http://192.168.1.1/fwupdate.html into the address bar in the browser.
    • Depending on which browser you are using, you may come across an error.
    • This error occurs when accessing a router that requires using an HTTPS connection.
    • To bypass this window, follow these steps.

  3. Enter “admin” as the default administrative router password.
  4. Click on Select File and select the previously downloaded factory-to-ddwrt.bin file and click Open.
  5. Click Update.
  6.  **CAUTION**:  After you start the firmware update, do not try to go online, turn off the router, or do anything else to the router until it finishes restarting.

  7. In your browser, go to http://192.168.1.1
    • You should be greeted by the password change page of the DD-WRT webUI.
  8. Set username (optional, default username is root) and password (enter password twice, these *must* match and are case-sensitive).
    • You should be greeted by the System Info page of the DD-WRT webUI
  9. Click on Setup to begin configuration to your needs.
    • You will be required to enter username and password previously set.

     **NOTE**:  By default, WAN is disabled. You *must* set WAN to Automatic Configuration-DHCP,
    Save, and reboot before proceeding. This is a known bug with the SoC.

  10. Click Save on each page (unless otherwise noted in a specific tutorial).
  11. When finished, Click on Services or Administration tab and click Reboot.

Upgrading (or Downgrading) DD-WRT

 **NOTE**:  SEE Where do I download firmware? for information on where to download firmware files.
 **WARNING**:  Do not use this file to go from Stock to DD-WRT.
 **NOTE**:  Reset to defaults is recommended if you are upgrading from a very old build (> 6 months).
 **NOTE**:  Do not restore a backup from one version to another version of DD-WRT, as nvram variable names may have changed.

Prerequisites

  1. Download the dd-wrt-webflash.bin from the linksys-mr7350 folder.

Procedure

  1. Connect your computer to your router with an Ethernet cable.
  2. Enter http://192.168.1.1 (or whatever you set your router IP to) into a web browser.
  3. Enter username and password as required.
  4. Go to Administration -> Firmware Upgrade
    • Leave Do Not Reset selected for After Flashing
  5. Click on Browse and select the appropriate previously downloaded tl-wdr3600-webflash.bin file specific to your router.
  6. Click Open
  7. Click Upgrade
    • The firmware update starts and the router restarts. The firmware update process takes about five minutes.

     **CAUTION**:  After you start the firmware update, do not try to go online, turn off the router, or do anything else to the router until it finishes restarting.

  8. If the webUI does not automatically go back to the Setup -> Basic Setup page, or does not stop at the progress bar page to allow you to click Continue after waiting at least five minutes (i.e. if you get a "Connection Reset" or other error page in your browser), enter http://192.168.1.1 (or whatever your router IP address is) manually or click and hold the "Back" button and select the appropriate history entry.
