I've got a Buffalo WLAR-L11-L (802.11b, 4-port hub, NAT box) that was
running firmware 1.01 happily. I tried upgrading to firmware 1.31 to
get PPTP passthrough capability. That seemed to work fine. Then I
tried setting a WEP key. The box tried to restart, and now gives the
two-flash red DIAG light indicating a flash ROM error, which persists
after power-off-on restart.

Is there any way back from here or do I now have a lemon with a
flashing red light?

TIA

Julian

Which is? I've tried power-off-on. There's also an INIT button on the back
of the unit, but no detail in the doc as to how to use it. Any ideas?

Thanks

I have a D-Link, so I don't know how to reset yours.
Go to thier website and look for support.
Mine has a hole on the back that you put a paperclip in and push for 30
seconds to reset to factory default.

Hope that helps
