I flashed kamikaze 7.09 in my whr-g54s several months before. Today I upgraded to 8.09 via web upgrade function but it seems something no work well. Then I want to reflash via TFTP. After several times fails I have to try the commandline. When I press 'enter' I was disconnected from ssh connection right away and my router died.

Reset is useless. Now I cannot ping my router, it only have the power light on....

What can I do?

Thanks.

any idea?

Maybe it is because of a uncompleted firmware..I downloaded the firmware on the router via wget and finished quickly. and then I run the command mtd -r xxxxx but got error message that it was not a valid image. then I tried the mtd -rf xxxx then got my router dead...

The discussion might have continued from here.
