TomatoUSB

Hi I flashed my router yesterday, and flashed it with this file here "tomato-K26USB-NVRAM60K-1.28.7500.4MIPSR2Toastman-RT-VPN.trx" from this website.

Flashed perfectly, was setting up my settings and configuration and at this point was able to access router via 192.168.1.1 fine and entered in my some of my settings.

Realised I needed access to internet to get some settings so disconnected the Asus router( but saved config), plugged back in and typed 192.168.1.1 and it prompts for username/password I enter it, it begins to load router login page but stays a white blank page with windows timer ?….. even after 30 minutes :(

I think somewhere the config has messed up and now I can not get back into the router login page to do anything, tried flashing asus firmware and same response blank page, tried alternative tomato firmwares and still same thing accept it remembers my changed password, tried to reset it also via the 5-10 sec hold "restore button" and then release and power on and then hold again but the blue power light does not flash at all just stays solid blue (power light)

Is there any way to reset the config, or totally wipe the memory to reflash it again fully from scratch ?

Any help will be much appreciated!

Ok, worked out what the other problem is.

I have noticed only several other people in the world via google also had the same issue as myself with Router login page not fully loading but the sand timer or "waiting" icon showing instead, but most got it resolved by adding a static ip into there network adaptor settings, ie from the guide from this websites ie adding "Manually set your computer IP address (in the TCP/IP properties of the LAN connection) to 192.168.1.2, network mask 255.255.255.0"

this did NOT work for me, instead I waited 15 minutes and then the Router login page showed up !

So I figured this maybe an issue with my network port or windows settings or something to do with the Lan Port. I noticed the driver on my Lan port was 3 years old, and went to manufacturers website and downloaded a newer driver and in fact was the correct driver !

Worked straight away afterwards, Router login page loads in a split second now. 10 hours of trekking through guides and asking questions to the point of throwing an Asus Router in the bin, but my persistence paid off !
