Ya, it's not happenig. Tried to use TFTP to force a firmware flash, but attempting to send the .bin file to 192.168.1.1 says "Can not get response from server". Set my NIC to 10Mbps Half Duplex, plugged the ethernet into the router only a second before attempting to send. All the little tricks the forums suggested, and still nothing. I did get a ping reply from the router before trying to flash. Though when I did ping it, TTL=64 and not 128. Not sure if that means anything or not.
