Asus rt-3200 router firmware

Hello all.

I have a shiny new Asus RT-3200 on my desk. I want to flash it with Tomato.

I clear NVRM. Then put the router in rescue mode then using tftp2 I upload the Tomato image. After the upload it goes in to a loop of 'erasing nvram...' then fails 5 times and the tool stops.

When I re-boot I get the stock Asus firmware. Can I flash Tomato from the Asus gui?

Using the Asus rescue tool I get and endless loop of 'finding free IP address' (or close to that. I can ping the router so that error seems odd.

I have tried the pc at 192.168.1.2 and the router at 192.168.1.1.

Something I just noticed. The product ID field in the firmware upgrade tab reports this is a RT-AC5300. Weird.

thanks, Bj

HI, is there a tomato flash for the RT-AC3200? If so please provide a link to the download.

Thank you,
 
Note that Tomato on the RT-AC3200 is experimental. I don't think Shibby ever fixed all the issues involved with it.
 
Does anyone have something, that be used to get dd-wrt on this unit? My only goal is to get VPN to work on the unit. I'm using pia vpn services. I'm doing a lot of streaming and need to get below the radar of my provider.

I have the AC9500 if there is a better solution for this one let me know.

Great for the heads up on the build that need repairs before installing and brick ingredients my unit.

Thank you,

:)
