Hello,
Yesterday I bought myself a brand new DIR-655 version A4 to replace my old Linksys router.
At first, everything seemed to work as normal. I could save my configurations and Wifi seemed to work.
Then, when I tried upgrading the firmware from 1.20 to 1.21, all went wrong.
The upgrade went as normal but when I tried to recover my settings after the upgrade, something seems to have failed. The settings never got recovered, and the router started to reboot everytime I tried to save some settings (without saving them, of course). In addition, the Wifi is not working, it just says "Wireless init failed".
I've tried to reflash the firmware to 1.20 and 1.21 (both the US, Europe and WW versions) countless times, but that does not seem to work. After trying to flash the firmware to for example the 1.20US-version, the router still says 1.21EU on the status page.
I've also tried to reset the settings to factory defaults, both through the router gui and by pushing the reset-button on the backside of the router.
So, now I'm stuck with a brand new router that is not working at all.
Does anyone, by chance, have a solution to these problems?
I've tried searching the forum, but no one seems to have problems with the "firmware not updating"-problem.
