Linksys WRT54G v6.0

WikiDdevi Notes
The stock firmware on these devices contains VxWorks, not Linux. See the Linksys v5.0, v5.1, and v6.0 bellow for instructions on flashing the units with DD-WRT.

"3763-14140704R" is silkscreened on the board.

The devices can be configured with SecureEasySetup. Being configured this way, the devices will assume SSIDs of linksys_SES_XXXXX where XXXXX appears to be a random number. Before being configured, but after the SES button is pressed, the device assumes an SSID of linksys_OW_XXXXX where XXXXX is a random number.

 * 2) Erase Wholeflash x2
 * 3) Flash CFE
 * 4) Unplug Power
 * 5) Unplug JTAG Cable

TFTP:


 * 1) Set Rig ip static 192.168.1.10
 * 2) Plug network cable from rig to port 1
