You will need to insert (prepend) these bytes onto the DD-WRT generic firmware if you want to flash using
Buffalo's WEB interface. You generally need to adjust the "filelen=" number to reflect the size of DD-WRT
(though it may work without these "filelen=" adjustments).
3) Buffalo's default IP address: 192.168.11.1. Router will also listen to this address during boot. It will
answer to pings with TTL=128. (DD-WRT answers with TTL=64)
Buffalo WBR2-G54/WBR2-G54S users: Remember to set the IP address to 192.168.1.1 before continuing.
These white soap boxes' hardware use this IP address in their bootloader. If you have trouble, flash it first with
Generic DD-WRT -firmware, turn off after first boot, and after plugging the power cord back in, wait 2
seconds, press Reset-button, let it enter troubleshoot mode (couple minutes), then power off second time, and
power back on and it should work. Note: Do not turn on device while holding the Reset-button, since that
might signal the bootloader to erase some vital configurations which are known only inside Buffalo Tech. Just
wait 2 seconds and then start holding the button, this signals the WRT firmware to use troubleshoot-mode and
it kind of repairs the NVRAM... (worked for me, Esa Häkkinen 2006-02-02 <esa.hakkinen@evtek.fi>)
4) After flash:
You will be able to access the router at 192.168.11.1. Do not restore to factory defaults, but you can erase
the nvram. Telnet to the router (username: root , password: admin , mtd erase nvram [enter], reboot [enter].
Please note: If you do restore to factory defaults, the router will respond at 192.168.1.1. Maybe you will no
longer be able to access the router via LAN ports. Try using the WAN port, or through the wireless
connection (ssid = linksys, ch.6, no encryption). Once you are connected, please telnet to the router and erase
nvram (username: root , password: admin , mtd erase nvram [enter], reboot [enter]. This will bring back the
LAN ports at 192.168.11.1.
Please note: Clearing nvram will also change the MAC addresses from 00:07:40:xx:xx:xx (Melco Inc.) to
00:90:4c:xx:xx:xx (Epigram Inc.). If you need original MACs back, telnet to the router and do the following:
(Use LAN MAC address from the label from router's back side)
nvram set et0macaddr=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx
nvram commit
reboot
You can also clone WAN and WLAN MACs using the GUI interface ("Setup"->"MAC Address Clone")
