Re: I *THINK* I just flashed my DI-524 into a DI-6

I admit it's probably not best practice to hack the firmware on a device that's sitting 2000 miles away, but I was too impatient to wait the extra 3 days before getting home

We're currently using the router as an access point only (it's connected behind a Vonage/Linksys RT31P2), so nothing's plugged into the WAN port, and DHCP is disabled. On the Time page, I put in the IP of an ntpd on the LAN, and the time hopped from 2002 to 2005, so that much is working.

Way cool. Finally...someone with the brains to figure this out. And from 2000 miles away too!

The DI-524 Rev. C and DI-624 Rev. C both use the Atheros AR2313A-00 SoC (System-on-a-Chip). If this chip is what's responsible for the SuperG support, then there's a good chance of SuperG working on the 524 with paul248's trick.

Compared to the 624, the 524 Rev. C is neglected when it comes to firmware updates. So being able to use 624 firmware would be especially nice even if only for a stable WPA2 firmware.
