from Tomato to Merlin

[simonex]

I'm using ac56u router with tomato by shibby .
I would like flash Merlin firmware , through recovery mode ?
Is there a specific procedure to be followed ?
There is a version of merlin fw to be installed before to other or proceed with the last version RT-AC56U_378.55_0 ?


thanks

Use recovery tool. Go directly to latest Merlin FW. Do a factory reset and you are good to go.

You don't need to use the recovery tool when flashing from Tomato. You may use Tomato's firmware upgrade page. Did it just this weekend.

Have gone back and forth a couple times. Make sure to do a factory reset after you switch. You will have to reconfig by hand once you are up and running on Merlin FW. You can't restore a shibby config file into Merlin.
