Here's the history of my failure and success

Flashed December 6, 2008 per <http://dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Installation>
and <http://dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Linksys_WRT54G/GL/GS/GX#WRT54GL>
and e-mail from Rosenthal 8Oct08 FAILED
View <http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Recover_from_a_Bad_Flash>
Hard reset fails
Download <FW_WRT54GL_4.30.12.3_US_EN_code.bin> from
<http://www.linksysinfo.org/forums/showthread.php?t=51306>
Use TFTP to flash
C:\TEMP>tftp -i 192.168.1.1 PUT code.bin
Transfer successful: 2941952 bytes in 12 seconds, 245162 bytes/s
New firmware 4.30.12 build 3, Dec. 20, 2007
Flashed December 20, 2008 with <dd-wrt.v24_mini_generic.bin> (2.8 mb)
from <http://www.dd-wrt.com/dd-wrtv3/dd-wrt/downloads.html>
(Tested OK from <https://secure.dd-wrt.com/dd-wrtv2/downloads/v24/MD5SUMS>)
Upgrade successful; wait 5 minutes before clicking Continue [forgot!]
Hard reset (30-30-30)
- Disconnect all UTP cables

- Release reset button and give router 10 seconds to resettle

All default settings should now be effective
