U-Boot | Although U-Boot can support two protocols for transfering files, kermit or y-modem, the bootloader does not support the <tt>loadb</tt> or <tt>loady</tt>. Minicom only supports y-modem protocol. | ||

Firmware flashing begun! | |||
The firmware has been successfully sent to the router. | |||
In a few seconds, the router should begin flashing its four status LEDs sweeping from left to right, then right to left (or up down, down up). | |||
This means that the router is flashing itself with the new firmware. | |||
Once the router goes back to having only the power LED lit, the router has been successfully flashed. | |||
In the terminal running Minicom you should see the firmware successfully flashing. | |||
