+==== Rev. C1 and E4 ====
 Installation is fairly straight forward for this router, you will need to access the D-Link recovery console with the steps below.
-  - As per the note at http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/DIR-615C , "If your dlink 615 C1 is at f/w 3.12 or 3.11 you may have to revert it to 3.10".  The older firmware is available from D-Link: http://www.dlink.com/products/?tab=3&pid=DIR-615&rev=DIR-615_revC

   - Set a static IP on your PC to '192.168.0.2'.
-  - Press and hold the reset button until the power LED starts blinking orange (usually takes ~45 seconds). Or, hold down the reset button while powering on the router, this is much quicker and only takes 5-10 seconds.

   - Let router flash the image, don't worry if it reboots before it reaches 100%. If the page loads forever or times out, your browser is unsupported. See below.

 Internet Explorer 7 on Windows is known to work, as well as Firefox 13.0.1 on GNU/Linux, but problems have been reported with newer versions and most other browsers on GNU/Linux.  Older versions of Firefox (4.x and below) are known to have problems, several people have been more successful with newer versions. Alternatively, you can use the ''curl'' command-line HTTP client like so:
   curl -0vF files=@openwrt-ar71xx-dir-615-c1-squashfs-factory.bin http://192.168.0.1/cgi/index
 There seems to be some compatibility issues with the firmware update system network stack and at least a Linux 3.5.3 kernel and curl 7.27.0. Even forcing ''curl'' down to HTTP/1.0 resulted in a hang. One known working configuration is NetBSD 5.1.2 with curl 7.26.0.
+***A use of Firefox 13 portable edition (on windows 7) was verified as successful.

 | FIXME: D1/D2 build instructions |
+The DIR-615D maps to DIR-300b1 therefore there is no dedicated target for 615-D.
+D2 can be flashed with Attitude Adjustment - RC1: openwrt-ramips-rt305x-dir-615-d-squashfs-factory.bin
+Problems when flashing with AA RC1 firmware:
+  - ethernet only works when trying to connect over 10baseT/UTP (10mbit/sec)
+  - wireless needs workaround
+**Wireless**:
+It is fixed in the recent Attitude Adjustment branch and works out of box. However, if you are using precompiled AA RC1 you will need a workaround: https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/12636
+**Ethernet**:
+The only way to get this fully working is to recompile using old ramips ethernet drivers (from revision: 24328)
+To do this:
+  - get the desired branch/trunk
+  - navigate to target/linux/ramips/files/drivers/net/ethernet/ramips
+  - remove all *.c and *.h files
+  - copy into this folder the 3 files from https://dev.openwrt.org/browser/trunk/target/linux/ramips/files/drivers/net?rev=24328
+  - rename ramips.c to remips_main.c
+  - continue with configuration/compilation as normal
+This has been tested and the router works flawlessly.

 Now you should be able to telnet to DIR-615_H1
-| FIXME: H1 build instructions |
+=== Rev. H1 Build Instruction ===
+This documentation refers to current trunk of 03.04.2013.
+Instead of using the above procedure, you can build the image following the next steps. It will create a working image with dhcp on wan and fixed ip 192.168.0.1 on lan.
+ - Download current trunk. I've downloaded it from git mirror:
+<code>
+git clone git://nbd.name/openwrt.git
+</code>
+ - Add the file "target/linux/ramips/rt305x/profiles/d-link.mk" with content (ref:[[https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=40623|DIR-615 H1 current sources]]):
+<code>

+</code>
+ - edit file "target/linux/ramips/base-files.mk", remove the line :
+<code>
+    rm -f $(1)/etc/config/network
+</code>
+ - Edit the file "package/base-files/files/etc/config/network" with the settings you want. For example:
+<code>
+# Copyright (C) 2006 OpenWrt.org
+config interface 'loopback'
+        option ifname 'lo'
+        option proto 'static'
+        option ipaddr '127.0.0.1'

+        option proto 'static'
+        option ipaddr '192.168.0.1'

+config switch_vlan
+        option device rt305x
+        option vlan 2
+        option ports '4 6t'
+</code>
+ - In case you have already build something make a dirclean
+<code>
+make dirclean
+</code>
+ - Configure the image:
+<code>
+make menuconfig
+</code>
+<code>
+Target System (Ralink RT288x/RT3xxx)
+Subtarget (RT305x based boards)
+Target Profile (DIR-615 H1)
+</code>
+ - Build the image:
+<code>
+make -j 5
+</code>
