WGR614L Firmwares
Staying up to date with the latest firmware is a good idea to keep your router even more
secure
from various security flaws.
If you want to squeeze a little bit of extra functionality out of your router, consider
flashing
an open-source firmware like dd-wrt, openWRT or LEDE. Flashing a custom ROM can greatly
increase
the stability and functionality of your old router.
Following are the firmwares that we have identified existing for the Netgear WGR614L
Flashing dd-wrt on the Netgear WGR614L
Since the WGR614L has 4 MiB of flash memory, you should choose a
stripped down version of dd-wrt that fits on the smaller flash.
We haven’t find any specific instructions for flashin dd-wrt onto the Netgear
WGR614L, but you can read the
Installation guide over at dd-wrt to get a clue on how to proceed (As this model is listed as
supported).
Note: Always make sure to read the wiki and howtos of dd-wrt before doing any
flashing.
Flashing OpenWrt on the Netgear WGR614L
The Netgear WGR614L is supported by OpenWrt according to their Table of
Hardware. So
flashing OpenWrt onto it should be quite straigthforward.
We couldn’t find any specific instructions for flashin OpenWrt on the Netgear
WGR614L, but since it’s listed in their Table of Hardware as supported, you can
head
over to the
OpenWrt install instructions and read on there.
Note: Flashing custom firmwares is always on you’re on own risk. Make sure to
read OpenWrt’s wikis to understand the risks and how to proceed if something goes
wrong.
