The only home WiFi routers I am familiar with(Netgear & Linksys) do not let you change code except thru an ethernet linked PC.


Every WiFi router that I've seen lets you flash firmware by connecting to the management server. Using Ethernet or Wifi is equally acceptable to the firmware update process.

I constantly and seriously advise against using WiFi for firmware updates, as it is the best way that I can think of to brick a router. But I don't think that the update process prevents you.
