N66U with dd-wrt

[jabbofresh]

Has anyone been able to get DD-WRT firmware install on an N66U or R model? I can get the firmware loaded just fine but the WAN port never works. Reverting to stock firmware or Merlin's and the WAN link comes right up with an IP.

From the dd-wrt wiki I'm installing the latest K3.x builds from BrainSlayer which supposedly bypass the CFE/nvram madness.

Thanks in advance!

After installing it, telnet into the router and type erase nvram. Hit enter. Then type reboot. Hit enter.
Should be ok after that. Then upgrade to kongac high memory build.
It's what I did.

Any dd-wrt firmware I load doesn't appear to be "flashing correctly" based on what I'm hearing on dd-wrt forums. In that status page it always shows my model number as Linksys WRT54GS even though I'm flashing the ASUS N66U firmware. Looks like my router just rejects the firmware or has a bad config file stuck in there that "erase nvram" isn't fixing...

I did neither and got a wan ip....
