<p dir="ltr">Doing some more research, I found Belkin's firmware online and tried using binwalk and found a signature and lzma compressed data. Hopefully I can read more and get it going. Thanks Carl for the response. </p>
<p dir="ltr">If anyone has experience with such a bin file would like to hear about it.</p>

The openwrt hardware table mentions its similar to F7D2301. I couldnt find the openwrt / dd-wrt / tomato bin files for the router. I am a newbie for routers and have very little hardware experience.
