Sucessfully Flashed Bufflao WZR-600DHP

Heres what i did to flash the buffalo wzr-600dhp

downloaded and flashed dd-wrt for the wzr-600 using the "buffalo_to_ddwrt_webflash-MULTI.bin" file found on this [www.dd-wrt.com] page

From there i tried to ssh in but could not get it working nor could i get winscp working either. Also i could not flash any other firmware labeled wzr-600dhp either. So then i noticed that the above mentioned dd-wrt firmware labeled my router as the wzr-hp-ag3000h in the webGUI

After noticing what my router was now labeled as i went to this [dd-wrt.com] page and dowlned the file labeled as "wzr-hp-ag300h-dd-wrt-webupgrade-MULTI.bin" and used the webGUI to upgrade.

After the flash/upgrade was complete i was able to ssh in and follow the instructions for flashing openwrt using putty's wget and mtd-r write commands found in the openwrt wiki for the wzr-600dhp.

Once all that was completed the Piratebox was sucessfully installed.

Piratebox should work on any router that has at least one usb port and supports OpenWrt.

actually no, for example, the MR3420 v.2.2 will not run piratebox.. the reason for my above post is bc in the past i have seen several post about how to flash openwrt onto the wzr-600dhp but i haven't seen any success with it. So i decided to post to let people know it is possible with the right steps taken. Essentially turning the wzr-600dhp into the wzr-hp-ag300h, since after all they have the same motherboard and very small differences in the outer casing.

I still say "yes piratebox should run with every well supported OpenWRT router and a USB Port.
If there are currently incompatibilities with trunk images, we have to do some changes on the piratebox-scripts to fix that.

btw: I can't find any MR3240 ; did you mean MR3420 ?
