How do I determine current firmware version for WRT54G

I've been poking around the site a bit, and note that there are mandatory upgrades to various firmware versions. I'd like to upgrade if necessary, but have no idea how to determine what firmware version I have right now.Message Edited by shelmart on 12-17-200605:36 AM

What is the excact hardware version # of your router? U can find that underneath the router itself, there's a sticker there & its just right below the Linksys Logo. If its version 5 or 6, u can go to this website: www.linksys.com/connect . Download & save Easylink Firmware Tool & then before u run that file after saving, disable first all your internet security like firewalls & anti- virus coz it will block the connection of this software from running properly. That EFL will automatically upgrade the firmware of your router.

I have a WRT54G Wireless modem with firmware version 1.02...

I have a WRT54G Wireless modem with firmware version 1.02.1 Mar 4 2003. i down loaded the latest firmware for the modem but i can't install it. I get the erroe message"incorrect image file".
What is wrong?

Which version of the WRT54G do you have? If it is not clearly stated on the router, go to Wikipedia.org and search for WRT54G, then you can use your router's serial number to determine which version of the router you own.
The version of the router is important. Each version has a different set of hardware in it, so each version takes a different firmware.
You can only load the firmware that corresponds to your model and version.

WRT54GS V7 Firmware version?

Hi all! I've recently bought a WRT54GS V7 cable router/access point. Now, given the problems I've had with previous devices, I'd like to make sure that the firmware is completely up-to-date. However, when I go to the Linksys UK website, and find the product download page, I am asked which version of the device I have. I have version 7, but it is not in the list. Interestingly enough, when I clicked on version 6, and then looked at the firmware version details, it said something like "for version 5 only". My router seems to have version 7.50.0 firmware installed. Maybe this is the version which they all have, and there are not yet any updates available. Does anyone know? Thanks Michael

Well, I thought I'd tried that already (although it makes no sense to me - I bought the item in the UK).
However, when I look carefully, I notice that my location is being changed back to 'UK' whenever I try to navigate to the 'Technical Support' page. So this time, I've cleared my cookies, it works, and I can find the file.
Someone from Linksys might want to get around to updating the UK page, and sort out the location changer so it actually does change when you tell it to. I'm sure that I'm not the only person in the country to have bought one.
Anyway, thanks for the help, and for the quick response!

WEBSITE BLOCKING ON WRT54G V6 (Firmware Version: v1.02.8)

Hello Friends,
Short: why some webpages block and others don't using this feature in my router? As mentioned above, I run a small office and am using an ::: WRT54G V6 (Firmware Version: v1.02.8) ::: router.
For instance, I have been successful in blocking sites such as "sex.com" and others. Also, in blocking sites by keywords such as: news, music, vid, nude, etc. BUT, when I try blocking FACEBOOK or TWITTER either by URL or keyword, guess what: IT DOES NOT WORK...!
Any ideas why this happens and how can I be successful in configuring this feature??? I will appreciate this! Blessings...
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Those sites have a random connection and DNS entries. Your best bet would be to use a DNS servcie like DDNS.com or OpenDNS.com service. Point your router to one of those DNS services and there DNS addresses, then set up one of those services to block FB and Twitter. If you use there DNS addresses on your router instead of the ISP DNS, and you block FB and Twitter, users should beable to get to FB or Twitter after that.

WRT54G, Firmware Version: 8.00.2, Stops routing after a day, Requires Power Cycle to Work Properly

WRT54G, Firmware Version: 8.00.2, Stops routing after a day, requires a quick 10-15 second power cyc... work properly for a day or so before powering down again….
I was using for years the BEFW11S4 Model without any issues before it finally failed. Due to loyalty, I went out over a month ago to purchase the current model. The problems did not pop-up until month of December… The issue had me thinking at first was the internet connection…
Any advice on dealing with this issue… Is it a Software and/or Hardware? It appears to be a software related condition…
For those other WRT54G users that appear to be having similar issues, regardless of the firmware, it would appear we all seem to be facing the same condition of resolving the issue after a power cycle…
Is there anyone out there that has already resolved this issue (e.g. Configuration changes)? Does anyone have input that Linksys is actively working on this issue?
Although I am sure we will find a solution, having to cycle the power is a bit disappointing since my older model had no such flaws with my current internet connection…
Thanks for the support out there….

If you have an Intel wireless card you can try this. I came across this link on the forum a days ago and it seems to help. The problem is that my problem was much more intermittent than some people are experiencing. It mainly seemed to appear when undocked the computer or if there was a power outage during the day. I would be interested to see if it works for you or if I'm just chasing my tail. I've seen other suggestions for changing the thresholds in the router which may be related.

Firmware version 8.00.2 for WRT54G on a Win 98SE system

I tried to download the 8.00.2 firmware for the WRT54G on my Win 98SE computer, which is hardwired into the router. I had the laptops with Win XE or with Mac op sys shut down so they would not access the router. I downloaded a file with the extension *.bin. Neither WinZip mor PKZip could expand that file. When I double-clicked the file, I got asked what program to use to open the file. Please advise on how to use the downloaded file on a Win 98SE system.
Also, when I tried to download the users manual and the info sheet for this router, I got a blank screen. I'd love to see these.
Thanks for any help.

To upgrade a routers firmware, open up Internet Explorer 1st, then on the address bar, type the numbers 192.168.1.1 (username just leave it blank, password as a default is admin). Then go to the Administration tab, go to firmware upgrade, browse, and select the file that you downloaded (the one w/ the .bin extension).

Port forwarding not working on WRT54G v5 Firmware Version: v1.02.2

Hi
Yesterday i updated firmware on my WRT54G v5 from v1.00.1 to v1.02.2 and now port forwarding does not work.
I have 2 PCs connected to my router. Both PCs have static ip (192.168.1.103 & 192.168.1.105). DHCP server in the router is ofcourse disabled.
For some reason i can not get port forwarding it to work. The weird thing is that
ALL requests are now forwarded to 105 regardless how i configure.
* I have set up different port forwarding rules that points to my 103 PC.
* I have put the 103 PC in DMZ.
* I have disabled DMZ and removed all port forward rules.
Still ALL requests are forwarded to 105??
What i am doing wrong? Why does it default send everything to 105?
Note that I had no problems with port forwarding before the upgrade.
Everything was working fine.
I upgraded because i wanted a fix for "DynDNS abusive updates".
I have seearched the forum for tips and tried setting MTU size to 1396 and shutting down my entire network and then restart everything. Also tried to uncheck "Block Anonymous Internet Requests" but still same behaviour.
I really need help!!
Thanks
D_M

well it is weird...anyways try resetting the router back to factory default settings and reconfigure it...check whether it works for you or not.

Firmware Upgrade for WRT54G

I have download latest firmware Version 8, I completed the firmware upgrade successfully, however on the router page right on the top it still show the earlier
version 1.02.
How do I checked whether I upgraded to Version 8. I have followed the firmware upgrade procedure and try the next lower version 6 but still show Version 1.02.
Is my router faulty, as it revert back to factory default after 1 month of new router
configuration.
Cheers!
Raymond Chang

On the tag all it means is that you have the version 5 of that router. Linksys will make them diferently (different chips etc.. etc..). Now the firmware version is the version of (software) installed on the chip in the router. If you tag says you have a version 5 you need to install the firmware for a version 5 router. The latest firmware is version 1.02.2 which came out 7/02/2007 for the version 5 router.
Here is a link to the WRT54G v.5 router.

FAQ Broken: How do I upgrade the firmware on a WRT54G Wireless-G Broadband Router?

I tried to view the above question in the FAQ, but it goes to the answer for a different question.
I then tried "How do I upgrade the firmware on my router?" a little further down,
but it acts like I'm not authenticated, and won't accept my Linksys Forums e-mail address
and password. When I try the password recovery, it says my e-mail address is invalid.
Can someone please point me to instructions for upgrading the firmware on my WRT54G?
Specifically, someone told me that the router needs to be listening on the default 192.168.1.1
IP address, but mine is listening on 10.1.1.2. Do I need to change this just to flash new
firmware, because that will be a little painful.
Thanks,

Go to website linksysbycisco.com/downloads.........insert model no of your router in serach tab......select proper version of your router........download the firmware file......save that file on desktop
Follow these steps to upgrade the firmware on the device : -
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on a computer hard wired to the router...
In the address bar type - "Default Gateway of Your Router"...Leave the Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
Click on the 'Administration' tab- Then click on the 'Firmware Upgrade' sub tab- Here click on 'Browse' and browse the .bin firmware file and click on "Upgrade"...
Wait for few seconds until it shows that "Upgrade is successful" After the firmware upgrade, click on "Reboot" and you will be returned back to the same page OR it will say "Page cannot be displayed".
Now reset your router :
Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 30 seconds and re-connect the power cable...Now re-configure your router...
**To Check the Default Gateway of the router...Click Start >> All Programs >> Accessories >> Command Prompt...A black box will appear(Command Prompt)...In the Command Prompt window type ipconfig and press 'Enter'...Look for Ethernet Adapter Local Area Connection IP Address , Subnet Mask and Default Gateway...
**To all the above setting using the wired computer.

Firmware Version?

This may be a very basic question...how do I find out what my firmware version my Airport Express currently has? I just bought my Express yesterday, and have it up and running (with a Linksys WRT54G wireless router); and have read on this forum about problems with older firmware versions (6.1.1) and want to make sure I have V6.3 on mine. Thanks in advance.

I'm not 100% sure, but most likely, upgrading/downgrading firmware will potentially erase your current settings.
Sounds like you set up the AX in client mode since you're using an existing wireless router in your network. If so, the following link provides the steps to get it back up and running. (ref: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302153)

How can I get the latest firmware for a WRT54GS 7.2? I accidentally downgraded to 7.2.05, and it came with 7.2.06.

Thank you! I tried that link, it came as a page not found on the Linksys site. I went to the UK version of the Linksys site, and they don't list the 7.2 version of the router. They only go up to 6.0.

Thank you David ... for links to previous firmware versions

Thank you david for posting the links to previous firmware versions. I posted a thread about the WRT54G (V8) and Easylink Advisor not recognizing this router after firmware upgrade. The timing of your post is excellent.
Just for some more info for WRT54G V8 users. I had the Easylink Advisor working before firmware update. After firmware update it still recognized router but NOT to set up new security settings. Everything was working and dropped connectivity issues seemed to be resolved so I was happy enough. But I had a conflict I thought was related to the Easylink advisor intsall (it was). So, I uninstalled and reinstalled. Easylink would not recognize the router at all afterward.
I think that rolling back to previous version firmware, then going through set up of Easylink advisor should restore functionality to the app. (except for security changes) but I havent tried it yet.
I need the new firmware to keep from dropping internet connection. So, I am hoping that I will only lose access to security changes through Easylink advisor when re-flashing with the new firmware again. We'll see.
I assume Linksys will upgate the Easylink Advisor in the near future so that it will recognize the WRT54G V8 router with latest firmware 8.00.4?
Thanks again David and good luck, all.

Yes, that was good news for V:M users but when are Creative going to release new firmware for the Zen Nano Plus and the Muvo players so that it contains FM Recording again?Could the Mods try and find out, please??PBMessage Edited by PeeBee on 2-09-20060:48 AM
