Has anyone used the DD-WRT firmware to a DIR 615 Rev c1? if so what were the results?

[Tweakyth13f]

I am also interested if anyone got any results out of this. THe DD-WRT website says that its not fully compatible.

yes, got it working after about two hours of trial and error earlier today, much better than the standard firmware. Now it is finally a Worthwile router

I've also done the latest update of DD-WRT on my DIR-615 Rev D1 and everything is perfect. All the problems i had have now gone away.

Has the previous posted stated "This is now a worthwhile router" 

I had pretty much given up on this router and D-Link due to their very very poor support. I used to swear by Dlink switches and such for my work as a network engineer. After the crap that this router and it's makers have given me i will not be recommending their products to any of my customers from now on. Such a shame because the top line of their switches etc are brilliant build quality. Just the people involved in the company and the software they put on them is pure fail.

After that said i'm happy with my DIR-615 with it's proper working firmware now. Thanks to DD-WRT but still i will be buying other products in the future.

I'm running DIR-615 D1 with DD-WRT for DIR-600 (build 13832).

Anyone knows if this is compatible with HW E1 version?

I was running dd-wrt 14144 on dir-615 c2 and it worked good but i found an instability problem with wireless connections... so i came back to d-link's 3.12NA firmware...

Well if you had no problems with D-Links official firmware in the first place then you probably had no need to go to DD-WRT. Like the saying always goes "If it's not broke don't fix it".  

I personally changed to DD-WRT due to some routing problems with multipul systems in my house. DD-WRT fixed it all for me. Also i've had no wireless problems on DD-WRT at all up to now. Everything i have wireless connects and stays connected. 99% perfect for me. Great speeds, more features etc etc. The only little niggle i had was the side light (I believe it's a reset button of some sort) is red on bootup of the router. A command in the Administration/command page fixed this for me.

Maybe in you case it was something to do with the hardware version being different but i have read reports of the D1 and D2 working fine. Your C2 hardware version may be the issue. I don't know for sure but maybe look around on DD-WRT's forums.

Good luck in whatever you go with
