well i just tried flashing my buffalo WHR_G54S with dd-wrt firmware and now the only thing is ever says is "aquiring network address" but it never connects. all of the LEDs look normal so i dont know if i bricked it or how to recover. please help me out. thanks
 
no sure how i know if DHCP is enabled. yes i tried flashing it about a dozen times. i got the router to work again but it only works at the ip address 192.168.1.141. according to dd-wrt's site i have to change the ip to 192.168.11.2 but then i have no internet connection and i cannot communicate w/ the router. i have tried logging into the router but all has failed so far. obviously i didnt brick it if i have internet through it again, but i would like to know the ins and outs of flashing a buffalo router w/ dd-wrt (and yes i read alot of their site already)
 
Try doing a manual software restore, there should be a small pin sized switch on the back somewhere, should restore the router to its original firmware and hopefully factory config/settings too.

Let us know how u get on.
 
well its working perfectly now and i honestly dont know what i did to fix it. and the best thing of all it has the dd-wrt firmware on it and it all works perfect. any tips on how to fine tune (beef up) my buffalo router while still maintaining reliability and all that good stuff?
 
no chief...thats not why. i did about 20 soft and hard resets with no results. anything about my other ? about dd-wrt fine tuning?
