Can't access 'update' page

Post by bird333 »

I installed the firmware for the wrtsl54gs and the 'update' page and the 'backup' pages are blank. I have tried in both firefox and IE. How can I upload a different firmware?

Thanks!

I'm a bit puzzled that the update page isn't working. I have it installed now on my wrtsl54gs, and it works fine.

That said... you can install new firmware by using scp to transfer the firmware file to the router. It's best to put it in the tmp directory so it gets stored on the RAM disk where there's a little bit more room. Then use the mtd command to write the new firmware to your router:

Code: Select all

scp new-firmware.trx root@192.168.1.1:/tmp
ssh root@192.168.1.1
cd /tmp
mtd -r write new-firmware.trx linux
