Buffalo WZR-1750DHP / Buffalo WZR-1750DHPD DD-WRT Firmware Releases (Community)

[Ammarin]

Could I flash DD-WRT Firmware of Buffalo WZR-1750DHP into Buffallo WXR-1750DHP (Japanese Model with External 3 Antennas)

Hi all,

I have for sometime now, and as many of you are aware, maintained a thread for post 20025 Buffalo OFFICIAL firmware to fix many of the problems it created on the G450H.

I now am starting this thread with the intention of doing the same for the Buffalo WZR-1750DHP / Buffalo WZR-1750DHPD as the official release remains on r23xxx and a lot has changed since then.

Thankfully there are regularly updated official DD-WRT community builds for the Buffalo WZR-1750DHP / Buffalo WZR-1750DHPD now available on the DD-WRT ftp site though many of these are released as BETAs with little or no testing.

For that reason, as with my G450H thread, i intend to post versions that work and i have extensively tested on a UK/EU, US and Asian/Russian version of the routers that are in my possession and only post versions that work on all three without any bricking on update. Basically if they don't work, or im not happy with the stability, i don't post it here!

NEWEST (Tested & Stable On EU/UK, RUS and US Router):
r31825 ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2017/04-06-2017-r31825/buffalo_wzr-1750dhp/

PROBLEMATIC RELEASES (DO NOT USE):
r27506 ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2015/07-09-2015-r27506/buffalo_wzr-1750dhp/ - POSSIBLE REPEATER ISSUES REPORTED (POST ANNOUNCEMENT TESTING - Thanks for report davo)

Please note, this is a DD-WRT Community build, not a Bufallo certified DD-WRT build, but if your having issues with the official buffalo firmware then the upgrade is probably worth a shot for you in the absence of any official Buffalo revisions.

If you do not have issues, don't risk breaking something that doesn't need fixing by updating ;) I cannot stress this enough

I have used the buffalo-wzr-1750dhp-webflash.bin firmware in my update BTW, the factory-to-dd-wrt.bin i have not tested! This is only used the first time you move from Buffalo to Community DD-WRT and should be the same as the webflash release

To upgrade, download the file from the FTP, then using the Buffalo DD-WRT GUI head to Administration, Firmware Upgrade and select the file on your PC.

I recommend resetting all settings to their factory defaults on upgrade; just do it, for the sake of some pen and paper to write down all your changed settings resetting on update fixes so many problems!

Hope this is of help to all of you :)
