I received me router today and tried to install the factory bin file with the web interface. I got an unsuccesful message and nothing changed. Does anyone know if I Telnet on the router, do a wget of the file and a mtd will work? Like the instructions of wrz-hp-g300nh?

That didn't go to well. The DIAG light is flashing and I can't acces the router. I tried 192.168.1.1 and 192.168.1.1 with no response.

Before I try the serial interface, I want to try tftp to put a new firmware on the router. I tried all the solutions I could find relative to the wzr-hp-g450h. I also tried methods I found for the WZR-HP-G300NH2, but adapting them to the 450. Can anybody reply and give me some advice?

I finally got to make my router running again. I used the serial interface and transferred via ymodem an openwrt frimware (the last version: attitude adjustment).

I still have some work to do because it seems that the wifi is offline every 2-3 minutes, and comes back online by itself.

I now also want to add the gargoyle packages, the documentation is based on the backfire version of openwrt. Can i use the same steps and the same packages with attitude adjustements, is there a ressource somewhere that I can read to help me?

I used the openwrt web interface to update the firmware. I sent the gargoyle sysupdate and got Gargoyle to run, finally!!!
