DO NOT BUY DEVICES WITH 4MB FLASH / 32MB RAM if you intend to flash an up-to-date and secure OpenWrt version (18.06 or later) onto it! See 4/32 warning for details. 1) This device does not have sufficient resources (flash and/or RAM) to provide secure and reliable operation. This means that even setting a password or changing simple network settings might not be possible any more, rendering the device effectively useless. See OpenWrt on 4/32 devices what you can do now. 2) OpenWrt support for this device will end after 2019. 19.07 will be the last official build for 4/32 devices. After 19.07, no further OpenWrt images will be built for 4/32 devices. See OpenWrt on 4/32 devices what you can do now.

You can still tinker with it, but be aware that, probably for those reasons, installing release 17.01.4 crashes on first boot. See a general warning on Supported Devices and more device-specific details on Techdata specific to Netgear WNR1000 v3. If you want to continue anyway, you're on your own with generic instructions. Also, you should check the “recovery” possibilities, to be able to go back to stock firmware if needed. → Install OpenWrt (generic explanation) Recovery Recovery with serial Cable Attach 3,3V Serial UART Adapter to J3 on the PCB. Pin 6=GND, Pin 2=RXD, Pin 5=TXD. J3 Connector is not soldered in by default. Standard UART speed 115200 Baud. Immediatly after Power-On, send Ctrl-C serveral times to enter the CFE Boot loader. Enter command “tftpd” into the bootloader. A default openwrt image produces an error message from the CFE bootloader that the Board ID is U12H139T50_NETGEAR, while the Image ID is U12H139T00_NETGEAR. Copy the standard OpenWrt image to temporary filename “flash0.os” on the PC and change byte with address 0x30 to contain a '5' (Hex 0x35). Then send this file via tftp. The default address of the device is 192.168.1.1. It can be changed with the ifconfig command in CFE like ifconfig -addr=10.0.0.2 -gw=10.0.0.1 -mask=255.255.255.0 eth0 tftp 192.168.1.1 binary put flash0.os CFE for WNR1000v3 version: 3.0.6 Build Date: Thu Jan 21 22:38:48 CST 2010 Boot partition size = 131072(0x20000) Found a 4MB ST compatible serial flash et0: Broadcom BCM47XX 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet Controller 5.10.56.46 Device eth0: hwaddr 2C-B0-5D-26-1C-3E, ipaddr 192.168.1.1, mask 255.255.255.0 gateway not set, nameserver not set CFE> ^C CFE> ^C CFE> ^C CFE> tftpd Start TFTP server Reading :: Done. 2822202 bytes read Programming...done. 2822202 bytes written Write len/chksum offset @ 0x003A7FF8...done. Decompressing...done Recovery without serial Cable The device enabled the network on IP 192.168.1.1 during boot for a very short time like 2 Seconds. It does not seem to be possible to send a TFTP image in that time. https://github.com/jclehner/nmrpflash might be a solution (untested).
