Try FF

Same result....

Can you try the v2.03 version?

Can you try the v2.03 version?

Same result.  Also tried 2.01 & 2.07 while I was at it...  same result.

I recommend that you phone contact D-Link support. The recovery mode should work. There maybe something in the files thats preventing the files from being accepted.

I'll see if I can find out anything on my end...

Appreciate the help, though not holding out much hope at this point....

I tried calling support--I'm out of warranty, so they didn't really have anything to say to me....  I'm annoyed to say the least that using a D-Link supplied firmware patch on a D-Link piece of equipment could brick the )(*&#$ thing!!!  Given the number of folks with the same problem since 2.07 (based on this & similar forums), there's evidently a problem here!!      [/rant]

I presume you didn't get a case number?

I'll ask my contact at D-Link if there is anyway of getting the router recovered on your end. Ya, the update shouldn't brick it however even if it is, recovery mode should fix it. It's why it's put in routers.

I'll see what I can do.

No, was not offered a case number (not sure if that's something I should've asked for...?).  In any case, I very much appreciate your help--if there's a way to kick-start this thing back to accepting a file, I'm all ears...!!  Please let me know anything you find....

[FurryNutz]

Ok, I sent off and email, can't guarantee anything...will be next week if I hear anything.

From now on, just to keep things safe, I've never had any issues pulling FW down from the main site and manually load FW files using this: FW Update Process
I recommend that you keep this in mind on any future router you may have.

I'll post back if I hear something.

Hey do you still have the 655 router? I have some possible help on this. Please let me know.

Yes!  Happy to have whatever info/try anything new.....  Thanks for anything you might have found.....

[FurryNutz]

Ok, let me see what they want to do. I presume this will involve a phone call. Let me see where you need to start.

Just to be sure, you did unpack the .zip file before sending it down in the Recovery mode correct?

[Jughead135]

Yes.  Tried all 6 versions available, multiple times, multiple browsers....

Currently traveling, no access to router--should be home by Saturday.

Thanks!

[FurryNutz]

Ok, I've ask them to review this and either contact you via PM or they will tell me otherwise on how to contact them. Not sure if anyone is avail on Saturday however if not, maybe Monday of next week. I'll post back if I hear something on this.

[FurryNutz]

In fact, PM me your contact email address best for contacting you. I'll forward it to D-Link.
