flashing an 834N with DGteam - do you need version 2..?
« on: May 04, 2012, 01:19:32 PM »

I may be wrong, but I think I recall someone saying to me that you need a specific version of the Netgear DG834N to be able to flash it with DGteam firmware..

is this true? and if so which version of it do I need?

does DMT Tool work with either version?

Iam about to bid on one on fleabay, I just missed one for £3.20 (+£5 PnP) as I was out fixing a laptop and missed my reminder last night!!!

thanks

I suspect that you may be thinking of the DG834G, which has had a variety of chipsets over its various versions. There are DGTeam firmwares for versions 1 to 4, but not for the V5.

yeah Iam aware of those too, I was sure a while back I read that you need V1 of 834N to flash it or something like that, must be wrong

DGteam website says V1 which indicates it may not work with v2..?

Yes, I just found that myself. I really don't know for sure, but I see there are suggestions that the V2 has a Conexant chipset, and if this is the case then the V1 firmware certainly won't be any use.
