: WRZ-HP-G450 Router
: absalon20 December 27, 2013, 10:41:59 AM

I Downgraded from DDWRT 20025 SP2 to Userfriendly 1.86

I don't Like the GUI and its very limited compared to DDWRT

Now, I'm trying to updated back to DDWRT 20025 firmware, but every time I get the message "INVALID FIRMWARE...REBOOTING IN 80s"

The DDWRT Firmware is from the setup disc that came with the router, so of course its a valid firmware. I tried Resetting IT, but nothing, I get the same message.

I believe some firmwares dont allow to row back to a previous one. It states int he release notes that you cant row back to 1.85 and the dd-wrt is based of a certain firmware version so the router will see it as a valid firmware. You are going to have to try download the dd-wrt release and see if that helps. If its in warranty you can always see if they will warranty it out.
