Title: DIR-655 A3 will not upgrade firmware
Post by: merkat106 on February 05, 2011, 05:22:49 PM

I have a Dir-655 A3 with the firmware 1.32NA. I cannot get the new firmware 1.35NA to take. The router seems to go through the motions of the upgrade, but at the end, when I log back on, the firmware still says 1.32NA & all custom settings remain.

I have upgraded the firmware on this router before and I know that when its upgraded, the router is basically reset to factory settings. All the settings have been backed up and I am attempting this upgrade via a wired connection.

On a side note, will there be any support for this router for ipv6? Will the firmware for revision B work on this router?

I had that issue earlier, do the factory reset, then flash.  If you go to 1.35NA don't reuse your config best to redo from scratch.  Also, if you go to 1.35NA you can not downgrade it to one of the earlier 1.3x firmwares.

As for IPv6 support, probably not and the B firmware is totally different and won't work on A hardware.
