I've been banging my head against the wall trying to upgrade my linksys router. I'm currently running 1.3.11 and I understand I can't use the web gui because of RAM to upgrade. I scp'd the new trx file to the tmp directory and ran sysupgrade, but that didn't work. I've tried tftp but it just won't take.

What am I doing wrong. What is the proper tftp method or other way to flash this thing. I really don't want to run out and buy another router.

Any help appreciated

Is this a WRT54G?

If so - you should be able to follow this method for TFTP:

That should work to load any of the firmwares.

Try 1.2.5 first - if that works, then try up to 1.3.9

1.3.10 and up is the big change, and some have had issues
with versions 1.3.10 + and WRT54G's - especially low memory.
