Hi! I'm thinking of getting a VPN connection, and have discovered I need a router with DD-WRT. I've researched it, and have come up with a Linksys e1200 router that will work. I've read the install instructions for updating the firmware with DD-WRT, but nowhere can I find the answers to a few simple questions. Do I install the router normally first; that is, do I use the router set up disk and install from the CD before I flash the firmware? Should I be connected to the Internet? And I've read and viewed install instructions, and one says that to install the 2nd firmware upgrade (after the initial mini file), to leave the setting in the upgrade firmware page in the router settings page to reset defaults, and another that says do not reset defaults---which one is correct? The other instructions seem straightforward. Any and all responses will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
