If you're referring to the two build links in the opening posts, that is an old build and you can find all new builds in the following DD-WRT locations:

http://www.dd-wrt.com/site/support/o...-V24-preSP2%2F

ftp://dd-wrt.com/others/eko/BrainSlayer-V24-preSP2/

Build 15471 has now been pulled and is in a new folder called 'broken'.

ftp://dd-wrt.com/others/eko/BrainSlayer-V24-preSP2/

I better put 15437 back on later then.

New links if you still need them:

dlink-revb-factory-webflash.bin
dir615d2-revb-ddwrt-webflash.bin

I'll install the new build tonight.

Edit: On second thought, I think I'll give it a few days in case this one gets pulled too. There has been a few broken releases in the last few weeks.

Have 2 of these routers, they do need a lot of manually rebooting, at least once per week. Hoping this build fixes that also.

Hi,
First post
Anyway I usually use tomato or dd-wrt in all my routers. The guide that started this thread is excellent.
A couple of things to note though.
You should always have the router re-boot, prefferably at a time when you are asleep. I set mine for 7AM EVERY DAY!

More importantly, the links are somewhat outdated in the original post. The version of DD-WRT ending in d i.e. "dir615d-ddwrt-webflash.bin" covers D2 as well as Virgins D4.
Hope this helps, and please keep testing.

I'm using R15506.
I've been using it this week and it appears to be stable. I haven't tried all functions yet though, but it works well as a standard router.

im using r15506, seems to be a problem as im getting hardcapped at 5mbit downstream using a wired connection for some odd reason.
my qos is switched off and i cant seem to find the offending setting...
any help would be much appreciated =x

Who is your ISP?
Have you done the 30/30/30 reset and set to default in the firmware before using it?
I'm currently getting 20Mbit using this version and hard wired.

Ive been running 15506 for about a week, no issues. I have found that setting it to reboot once a day [7am in my case] helps stability with any version.

That's what I do too. Worth doing especially if you happen to download or torrent as DD-WRT has more open ports (4096)that can stay alive for quite some time.

You can adjust the TCP and UDP timeout interval in the Administration tab.
