    The document provides instructions for manually converting a Linksys WRT-320N router to a Cisco E2000 router through flashing custom firmware builds of DD-WRT. It involves installing a WRT320N build of DD-WRT, editing the firmware image to match the router's MAC and serial details, flashing the edited firmware via telnet, then flashing a standard E2000 build to complete the conversion. Caution is given around ensuring settings are reset correctly to avoid bricking the router.

    Manual converting Linksys WRT-320N Cisco E2000 Make sure your anti-virus and firewall software is disabled.

    . Setting a static IP on your rig is recommended, use 192.168.1.8. There is an oprational jtag on a WRT320N. If you brick your router, it may be recoverable. If you do not follow the instructions exactly you may need serial to recover assuming your cfe flash was good. You will need a hex editor program eg HxD and winSCP. Steps: 1. Install a wrt320n build of dd-wrt. We are going with this one: dd-wrt.v2414896_NEWD-2_K2.6_mini_wrt320n.bin. 2. Then once it is flashed on there, apply a username and password. EG username: admin password: admin. 3. Go into the dd-wrt webgui Administration> Factory Defaults, and set it back to defaults. 4. Backup the existing cfe via http and put it in a safe place. IE or Firefox: http://192.168.1.1/backup/cfe.bin

    5. Edit the cfe_e2k.bin with the mac,serial and 8 digit easy access pin from the sticker on the wrt320n using a hex editor (HxD). MAC is at offset 0x3E098 SN @ 0x3E0AD pin @ 0x3E0C2

    6. Reset the router to defaults and enable SSH via browser. Services Enable SSHd and Password login 7. Use winSCP to copy the cfe file to the /tmp folder of the router. Username use root and password as applied in step 2.

    8. Close winSCP and open a telnet session.

    9. Do the following: telnet 192.168.1.1 username/password: root/admin cd /tmp mtd unlock cfe mtd write -f cfe_e2k.bin cfe exit telnet when complete.

    10.Access the router via browser. 11.Using the admin upgrade tab, flash with "dd-wrt.v24-15396_NEWD2_K2.6_std_mod-e2000.bin" and select 'reset to defaults.' 12.Once booted, reset to factory defaults once more (If you do not reset to defaults, your router will brick and you will need serial to recover!). Be patient.. This will take a while and the router may reboot three times. BE PATIENT! It can take up to 6 minutes or longer. BE PATIENT! 13.Flash a 2000 build without the modified header. We select this one to fix the led issues: "dd-wrt.v24-15396_NEWD-2_K2.6_big-e2k-e3k.bin". Yes, this means a trailed E2000 build (bin with the router name in it) from Eko's K2.6 Builds. 14.Once you have finished all of this, you can then safely perform a 30-30-30 and begin setup.
