Only factory image available

Post by jpstickler »

I have been running ROOTer for a while as a temporary solution for poor DSL that I have in my location. I wanted to flash to the latest image available, however it shows only Factory image in the zip file - no upgrade option.

If I was to install this and do a clean wipe on my router would that work, or should I flash back to the Linksys image and then flash back to the new ROOTer image?

I would try the ROOter image.

Also, most Linksys routers have two boot partitions, and one of them may still have the OEM firmware. You may be able to plug in power, unplug power, plug back in (four or five times, with about a second inbetween), and it may boot up to the OEM firmware.
