By the way, since we're talking about D-Link, it's instructive to read the
warnings on their firmware update pages.
        Do NOT upgrade firmware on any D-Link product over a wireless
        connection. Failure of the device may result. Use only hard-wired
        network connections.
Cisco/Linksys says the same thing.

It is safe to do it with openwrt at least. scp the firmware to a local file, then update flash from that file.
