See Where do I download firmware? for newer builds.
1. Plug a cable into the LAN port of your router. Never upgrade except with a LAN cable connected to
your router from your computer, and make sure your firewall, virus protection and wireless are OFF
in your computer.
2. On your router, hold the reset button down for 30 seconds. Power light should turn orange and then
after you let go of the reset button, after a few minutes, all lights should return to normal.
3. Set a static IP on your computer of 192.168.0.9. If you don't know how to do this, you should not be
messing with third party firmware.
4. Login to the router at 192.168.0.1. Admin is username and password is left blank. MAKE SURE
YOU HAVE RETURNED TO FACTORY DEFAULTS
5. Go to the firmware upgrade page. Select the dir601a1-factory-to-ddwrt-firmware.bin that you
downloaded earlier to upgrade

range.
11. Logon to your router at 192.168.1.1
12. SELECT the username (make ALL the dots blue highlighted) and enter one that you will remember.
13. Select the password and enter one that you will remember, and then enter these and go in and
configure your router.
Restore to Factory Firmware
(Per user experiences, if you are having difficulty flashing, use Windows with Internet Explorer 6 or Ultra
Simple Web Browser 2.0 [1].)

* unplug the power cable to the router
* press the reset button and plug in the power cable when the power led flashes orange release
* go to 192.168.0.1
