Bricked WRT54G

[buschman31]

I have just bought a bricked Linksys WRT54G and with so many tips and instructions on how to unbrick it, i'm not really trying to go thru a lot of hoops in sorting thru it all. Is there someone out in the forum that would help in getting it fixed if i sent it to them? From the info gathered its the version 1.0. I really wanted a Dlink since my wireless B is Dlink. Anyway, any help would be appreciated. Send email for faster reply.

you should post in the Networking & Security forum to get some replies, maybe there they will now about your router

ok, now that u are here (???) , i can reply, well sometimes when you "brick" your router is for good, what happened? try to flash its firmware? let´s just hope that your router is not dead. check this link out

Try plugging into the WAN port on the router. I have seen quite a few "bricked" WRT's that could be recovered via the WAN port behaving like a LAN port.
