No need to do any hex editing any more. The first time you install DD-WRT, you have to use the factory-webflash file, e.g. dlink-dir615d-factory-webflash.bin, and you can install this via D-Link's own firmware GUI or failing that the Emergency Room. Once you've got DD-WRT installed, you just need to install the webflash file via DD-WRT's GUI to upgrade and downgrade the build, e.g. dir615d-ddwrt-webflash.bin. The usual procedures apply, such as it's best to reset the router to default before changing the firmware and then power cycling it once the firmware is installed.
