bin file is for subsequent DDWRT to DDWRT flash.chk file is for initial Netgear to DDWRT flash.So I switched to the main-branch (nicknamed brainslayer) DD-WRT, particularly: However, I pretty quickly found at that although rock-stable (for the 2-3 days I used it), this edition lacks the Samba/FTP functionality I desired. Firmware choiceĪfter reading various topics and posts about the best DDWRT firmware edition to use on my new Netgear WNDR4500v2, I flashed the latest (at the time) K3-AC flavour of the DD-WRT firmware: So, after using DD-WRT on the trusty old WRT54GL for almost 4 years (which although still works like a charm no longer handles my connection speed), I decided to jump right back to DD-WRT (as I had most of the stuff already configured and migration should have been very smooth). I would most likely not have replaced it from day 1 however if it had one more feature that I absolutely needed: TFTP/PXE/BootP options for the DHCP server. The original firmware is also quite extensive, including plenty of features even for a maniac user like me. It also has a 4-port Gigabit switch and Gigabit WAN, plus dual-band (2.4GHz and 5GHz) wireless, for up to 900Mbps combined connectivity. The Negear WNDR4500v2 router is quite a beefy piece of hardware, boasting 128MB of RAM and 128MB of flash.
