Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
Thank you so much for this guide. Having been with Virgn for a few years I thoug I would try and 'blag' a nice new fast wireless N router and got the DLink.
I was ready for using it as a dog toy until I found this post. It really is a c**p bit of kit.... Any way, your guide worked perfectly and the only extra step I had to take was rebooting the cable modem. Probably because I needed to re register my MAC address with Virgin (?). Either way, up and running now and amazed at all the nice new options available to me... Thanks again :D |

I Checked my Checksums :) and I'm definitely getting what I posted at first.
Screens attached to show... Plus the download links are direct from my dropbox so its definitely the exact same files. Try downloading again, if your still getting problems I'll dump the files elsewhere for you to try. |

Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
Thanks for the links.
I have downloaded ALL the files again, using CHROME, and IE - not that I am desperate lol Thanks very much for your help - love you long time!!!! I will let you know how I get on... ---------- Post added at 12:13 ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 ---------- Checksums are spot on now :) Will flash sometime today.... |
Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
I followed this guide this morning and it worked fine, thanks. :) Just to note that you don't need to manually set the LAN IP, subnet etc when you flash over to DD-WRT (step 5).
ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew does the job perfectly and saves a bit of hassle. :D I'm finding throughput a little unpredictable with this release. My usenet downloads are swaying between 5.5 and 6.1 MB/s whereas on the stock v4.11 firmware I was getting 6.1 MB/sec rock solid. I think I'll flash back for now. Hopefully Tomato will release a compatible version as I love their firmware and find it much lighter on resources (and has better throughput) than DD-WRT. |
Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Obviously I had crap files, cos I is up and running with DD-WRT - thank you ACATHLA for all your help, you are a legend. Now - time to play :) Thanks again :) |
Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
Just changed the firmware all is working fine apart from only beening all to connect to the router over the wireless at a maximum 65 mbps. I was able to connect at 300 mbps before the firmware update.

Just created an account to say THANKS. Instructions worked perfectly on my dlink 615 D2 model which virgin gave me this morning. Upgraded to 50meg. I had flashed the router from VG firmware to Dlink firmware before following this but all went smoothly. The default / dlink firmware wouldn't let me lock MAC for wifi only so was glad to see this router supported DD-WRT (my old one didn't). Much appreciated. |

Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
Thanks for the guide, flashed mine but have a few issues:
1) My (virginmedia) netbook Windows XP and internal n wireless will only connect at 65mbps even with full signal; it did 300 before flashing 2) My vista machine running chrome and IE keeps stalling during page loads and fails to load pages fully when on wireless, the connection does not look to drop and I am 2 feet from the router. Hard wired its fine 3) Wifes xp laptop seems fine too. I have seen a build 14114 here (http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtop...=asc&start=240 Anyone running this one? |
Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
Im not running the 14114 atm - the original build in this thread allows me to run in G-Mode only (as thats what all my clients are) - but the next build I tried removed this option (just gave N only, or mixed) so I reverted back. Going to try the 14114 at some point.
