Help,
I think I just made a huge mistake and flashed my WNR3500Lv2 with the Toastman Tomato Firmware 1.28.7486.4.
Now this must be a firmware that don't work on my router as power LED lamp are steady in orange (maybe yellow) and I can't connect by wire or wifi.
When i connect my laptop by Ethernet I get a strange 192.254.x.x IP.
Is there any solution or did I just waste $$$ on my mistake?
(I tried to make a 30/30/30 reset with no success)
Did you set a static IP address in your computer or is is set to obtain an address automatically? The default setup for Tomato for DHCP to be disabled.
It's set to obtain an IP address, using DHCP. I can not do anything with my router, as I can't connect to it.
It recognizes that a Ethernet cable is connected, but that's all.
yuo did huge mistake and brick your router. Only my "dedicated" tomato build support 3500Lv2.
here is howto of debrick process:

@HellChords - today or tomorrow.
Hi Shibby,
thank you for your huge contribution to 3500lv2! Just a question. Any chance to see TimeMachine compatibility in future builds?
cheers,
alberto
I thought so. And even worse, I only have Mac, so I don't think I can use that tutorial :(
Why not? If you have problem in traslating phases in Mac app terms you could put a windows OS in a VirtualBox and do the job!
Ok good. I will see if I will give it a try, as I see that there is many comments about different cables etc. and looks like a big task for me.
Looking for the TTL-232R-3V3 cable and it's almost half the price of the router. By the way, what's the difference between the WNR3500L and the WNR3500? The WNR3500 is almost ?30 more.
In v2 there are no pins one will able to shortcut. Things are getting smaller. But maybe there would be another way on the circuit board to make a shortcut.
Did not find anything about it though.
I guess there is no chance to try to get the router fixed on the warranty?
Netgear will. Just register router on netgear page and send router on the warranty.
"By the way, what's the difference between the WNR3500L and the WNR3500?"
3500 hasn`t USB port. 3500L and 3500Lv2 has.
Wow, good news then. The router is registered on Netgear so I will just return it? Will they not see that I fiddled with it?
But why is the 3500? more expensive then?
Good news, I called Dustin from where I bought it. And they will just send me a new one =) So what Tomato software will I use this time to get it working?
there are 3 different models:
- 3500L
- 3500v2
- 3500Lv2
well which one have you got?
3500Lv2 with the USB port at the back.
Thanks! What do you men with "If the replacement is DEFINITELY"? Can't one restore the original firmware if one flash with the Shibby's K26RT-N?
The V2 works differently to previous versions. tftp does not come up automatically for a short time when the router is booted. You have to manually access the router with serial port and turn on tftpd. Only then can you tftp new firmware to it. So there will be no trick such as shorting pins which will enable tftpd.
When flashing the V2 with new firmware, please make absolutely certain that the build you flash is clearly marked 3500L V2
Toastman branch RT-N now supports the V2.
Tostman>> I suppose you just refer to a bricked router?
I received my new router today. It's a WNR3500L v2. Which of the tree firmwares should I use? http://tomato.groov.pl/index.php?dir=K26RT-N%2Fbuild5x-088-EN%2FWNR3500Lv2
Can I use my HP photosmart C5200 printer in the USB port with this software?
Now there is new version
http://tomato.groov.pl/index.php?dir=K26RT-N%2Fbuild5x-092-EN%2FWNR3500Lv2
Chose AIO version.
I just flashed the router with this firmware (092 AIO) And at the default settings my download speed is terrible? Normal download speed is 13Mbps, but with this firmware I get max 1Mbps.
The upload speed is normal.
Update: When connected via Ethernet the download speed is full. When next to the router I get 8.5Mbps download speed. So I have a serious wifi problem with version tomato v092.
Having bricked my router once. I want to be sure, and want to ask if this is the right software for my router WNR3500L v2 http://www.myopenrouter.com/download/38605/Tomato-by-Shibby-for-WNR3500L... before I download and flash it.
Many thanks!
I have tested tomato-Netgear-3500Lv2-K26USB-1.28.RT-N5x--101-AIO.chk with Netgear 3500Lv2. It seems to work fine.
Did you notice improvements like signal strenght or something?
The changelog gives no reasons to expect improved signal strength:
CHANGELOG:
[RELEASE] 101
- IPv6 suppord fixed (sit.ko module depends)
- Transmission fixed (libiconv depends issue)
- RAID 0/1 support. Modules and mdadm tool available in extras. Mega-VPN and AIO have RAID modules and tool build-in
- radvd update to 1.9.1 + libdaemon
- Memory leak fixed (when IPv6 is enabled)
- L2TP WAN connection fixed
- VLAN mapping for Belkin routers
- miniDLNA update to 1.0.25
- AsusRed and LinksysRed themes bu @Nitro 2nd edition
- Linksys E2500 Power LED fixed
- Images for Belkin routers (K26)
Just upgraded firmware and no change in signal strength? It even dropped 2-3% Do you have experience in increasing the "Transmit Power" Default now is 42mW.
It seems I have problem with the new firmware. Can I downgrade to previous version, and if so where can I find it?
