Remember to undo your static IP settings and enable your Windows Firewall again. It will flash the firmware and the router will automatically reboot when it is finished. Start the upload from the Asus tool on your PC. The power LED will flash to indicate that the router is in recovery mode and you may release the reset button. (not the red EZsetup button) Hold down the reset button while connecting the power cable. You will need a pen or a paper clip to press the black reset button. You should have the power cable on the router unplugged.
Choose the dd-wrt.v24_mini_x file you downloaded earlier. Make sure you enable it again when you are done. You may have to disable the Windows Firewall for it to work. Open the Asus Firmware Restoration Utility. Set a static IP like 192.168.1.10, Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0 Gateway and DNS can be left blank. If you do not want to use the Asus tool you can use a different TFTP client instead. If you are using Windows Vista you may have to run this tool as Administrator. You can also download the utility from the Asus website. The CD that comes with the router contains the Asus Firmware Restoration Utility. Step 2: Connect to your router using a LAN port and install software. Download the lastest dd-wrt.v24_mini_x for the initial flash and dd-wrt.v24_usb_generic.bin for upgrading to USB later. Choose the latest build and use the files from the broadcom folder since Asus uses broadcom chips. The most recent "stable" build (v24-SP1) does not include USB support. After installing that, we can upgrade to the USB build. Thank you for the info, i will try this when i get home this weekend.Step 1: Download the correct files from the dd-wrt site.įor the initial flash we will use the Asus specific build. I do know that my cron works as I have it wake on lan a pc 4 days per week. I would think this would be the easiest way.Īlso, a script might be written to be called (if it is possible to have the dd-wrt cron call a script in a certain location) that would turn it off, then sleep for a time, then restart it.Īnd a search for how to set time/date for cron can be found by an internet search.Īgain, I have not done this, but it should work. The dd-wrt Administration>Management tab is where such a cron command would go.Ī cron command could be set to restart the radio (from what I read) or it could be set to turn the radio off and then another one set for 1 minute later could turn it on. I also found this on the internet so it should be workable. I would test the commands to make sure they work and then work on cron. It should work at least for routers with Broadcom chips. NOTE: I haven't done this, but the following page has commands for wireless.
