Three methods of flashing are covered below: using the router's online interface Method 1 , via TFTP Method 2 , and with the Command Line Interface Method 3 - use this if wirelessly connected. These instructions are very generic. TFTP is generally a safe method to flash many routers.
However, it is not preferred method for flashing most devices. In the Hardware-specific section you may be advised to use this method if it is the preferred or only method for your brand or type of device. Normally, the GUI flashing method should be used, as it is adequate for the vast majority of standard situations, but refer to the Hardware-specific section to be sure. Tftp is easy: if often requires one quick box uncheck and a quick click - then you are good to go.
It is great for instances when web GUI malfunctions or the router appears to be but is not bricked. Other flashing methods transfer the file from your PC to the router which would go over the wireless which is not as reliable and do nothing to verify that the file is not corrupted.

Open up a Terminal window and type ping This means the router is communicating with the computer. If you do not see similar results, then recheck the first couple of steps and try again. Leave this window up and running. It should continue to keep pinging.
Now open up a second terminal window. Once you are in the right directory, type tftp Now type these commands: binary trace rexmt 1 Now type put code. However, do not press Enter yet.
Just leave this window open for now. Next, unplug the power from the router. Then hold down the INIT button on the bottom of the router you'll need a pen tip, or some sharp object to do this. Keeping the INIT button pushed down, plug the router back in. Your router should still be connected to your computer via the ethernet port at this time.
