I uploaded the mesh firmware to my WRT54GS V2 and had the mesh working smoothly. Noticed some differences in menu presentations with another mesh experimenter in the area related to publishing a service. I noticed the file on the website that claimed to be used to "upgrade an existing mesh node." The result was not what I expected. My router is now running Linksys software (appears to be a late version)  and I cannot re-load the mesh. I attempted to load mesh software for WRT54GS (What I had previously loaded) and also WRT54GS_V4. Neither succeeds.


Suggestions?

Actually, the firmware upgrade did not fail. It works fine as a Linksys router. I cannot seem to re-establish it as a mesh node. I'm looking at our link right now...

I solved my problem by upgrading to DD-WRT. I was then able to install the wideband.hamnet firmware. Thanks to Erik, WB0NIU, for the suggestion.
