Example: Flashing with SCP

Occasionally the DD-WRT web interface will decline to accept a valid firmware. SCP is a good alternate as long as you've enabled sshd on the 'Services' page.

scp -rp local_firmware_name.trx root@192.168.1.1:/tmp/remote_name.trx

Login with ssh and

mtd -r write /tmp/remote_name.trx linux


WinSCP (easy to use GUI for SCP)
