New ones turn up on R19 or at least they used to but once that has been updated over the wire then SFAIK there is no way back to R19.

I've factory reset them in the past when firmware glitches corrupted the port forwarding I'd set up and that didn't alter the firmware so far as I recall. I guess it's possible that there is an area of eprom memory with R19 in them still and corrupting the live firmware may just cause it to revert to that but how you'd force that I've no idea. Maybe as QAS has had them apart and checked the chips he can say if there is an eprom in them than may contain the original firmware?

TBH hardware wise a cheapo £30 Tenda leaves the thing standing so I'd see messing with it only worthwhile for somebody who enjoyed playing rather than for someone who placed any value on their time.
