Upgraded to 2.07NA Firmware and it bricked my router!
jaskerx:
So here I am today playing with the settings in my DIR-655 NA B1 router when I notice that a firmware upgrade is available. I clicked the button and the router automatically downloaded the file named DIR655B1_FW207NAB09.bin. I flashed it and was saying that it needed to wait 180 seconds (3 minutes) to reprogram the router after which it came up with a 404 not found on the screen. I am not able to access my router, it is bricked and I can't even reflash the firmware comes back with Incorrect hardware ID image, Please check. I notice that the 2.07NA firmware file on the website is named DIR655B1_FW207NAB05.bin. What gives this is the first time a firmware upgrade has bricked anything I own?

Can try this:
Emergency Recovery Mode
Be wired to the router, not wireless.
I would load v2.03 unless you don't use Shareport with v2.07.
If you can't this this mode to work then you'll need to contact DLink for RMA.

Totally bricked, tried everything...had to RMA the unit. On another note couldn't get out of the Dlink rep why the router would download a 2.07NAB09.bin but the website only had 2.07NAB05.bin. Its killing me why the router would download a higher build number than what's available on the website?
FurryNutz:
What region are you located?
Even the FTP site only has B01...Odd
