Hello everyone, it's been a while since I've been here!

So I acquired an ESoft InstaGate 604 router, and the software is really awful. I would like to put DD-WRT on it, so I started doing some digging..

I have not seen anyone do this yet, so I'm not sure what kind of assistance I can get from you guys, but I figure it doesn't hurt to ask.

Someone out there has installed pfsense on this firewall, making me think that the x86 build of DD-WRT should work just fine.

I went through the process of putting the DD-WRT files onto the SATA drive that is inside of this firewall, and it does turn on, but I get no IP address on any of the interfaces. It does have a console port, and I've tried connecting to the console port with no feedback at all; the screen stays black.

Without a way to see what's going on, I have no idea where to start.

Does anyone have any ideas of what to try?

Thanks in advance,

Jared
