awatral,

It is normal for the DIR-300 to reset after using the command “reset”. You should wait for at least 30 seconds before attempting to telnet back again (as mentioned in the guide).

HELP!
well – I am affraifd I did brick it…
I was proceeded accoring to the guide: http://www.shadowandy.net/2007/09/mini-flashing-guide-for-dir-300.htm
got as far as telnet to the new address 192.168.1.1, port 9000
and typing reset:
(…)
DD-WRT> fis create -l 0×30000 -e 0xbfc00000 RedBoot
An image named ‘RedBoot’ exists – continue (y/n)? y
… Erase from 0xbfc00000-0xbfc30000: …
… Program from 0×80080000-0×800a8718 at 0xbfc00000: …
… Erase from 0xbffe0000-0xbfff0000: .
… Program from 0×807f0000-0×80800000 at 0xbffe0000: .
DD-WRT> reset

but than my putty window has disconnected on its own.

And now I cannot even ping my DIR-300
there are no LED indicator lights indicating presence of physical link
and ipconfig claims that LAN is “Media disconnected”

so I have no way to telnet back to my router to finish the firware flashing procedure….

(I tried both WAN and LAN1 ports)

Any suggestions?

in the last step I see
” DD-WRT> fconfig Run script at boot: false”,
as a true change of false?
Thanx
