raptors892004 Posted March 31, 2007 CID Share Posted March 31, 2007 Install Guide - the simpler one which I would like to use I have a WRT54G v6 and I've asked questions due to its slowdown previously in this forum and this guide was given to me. Now that I have some time, one thing I'm wondering is for the tftp utility and the pic shown on that page about the WRT54G install process, is the password blank or is it something else (obviously not "admin" as password in the image is longer)? From other guides (namely this one , the upgrade process is different but the password is blank). However in the last guide, a custom firmware image is created which is later uploaded through the Management Mode so maybe the password for it is blank. Does anyone know whether the password for the first guide should be blank as well? I'm asking so I don't get stuck with no working password for upgrading to DD-WRT with the tftp utility. Thanks in advance. Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/18348-dd-wrt-install-question/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimPawlak Posted April 1, 2007 CID Share Posted April 1, 2007 with the tftp program, (you have to use that) just use the password you use currently to get into your router Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/18348-dd-wrt-install-question/#findComment-216135 Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptors892004 Posted April 1, 2007 Author CID Share Posted April 1, 2007 Yeah but does the password change with the new .bin files I upload as I progress through the first guide (the one I want to use and where a password is shown in the tftp utility)? And btw thanks for the fast replies Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/18348-dd-wrt-install-question/#findComment-216136 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimPawlak Posted April 1, 2007 CID Share Posted April 1, 2007 default username and password is root and admin (root username admin password) Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/18348-dd-wrt-install-question/#findComment-216139 Share on other sites More sharing options...
raptors892004 Posted April 1, 2007 Author CID Share Posted April 1, 2007 default username and password is root and admin (root username admin password) I knew that already but thanks. I guess I'll try the tftp with no password (doesn't mention any in the guide), then if it doesn't work try it with the linksys one - hopefully it would work with no password. Thanks once again for the replies. Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/18348-dd-wrt-install-question/#findComment-216140 Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdelacruz Posted September 29, 2007 CID Share Posted September 29, 2007 Hi, I am new with dd-wrt, but found it to be rewarding using this open firmware. I have a Linksys WRT54GC v1.0 wireless router, is it possible to update this model. And what version can i use. Have anyone tested this with this model. Please advice. Thank you and more power.
