Flashing multiple routers

I've got 10 routers, all static IPs that are the same. 192.168.1.1. I have one computer, and I'd like to flash all ten of these routers  simultaneously. To flash the router, I must be connected as a client, so my computer will have the IP of 192.168.1.2, 3, 4, etc...

I setup IP aliasing to allow eth0:0 to have 192.168.1.2 and connect to router A by mac address, eth0:1 to have 192.168.1.3 and connect to router B by mac address, etc... but I've not been very successful. Anyone know how to implement this system, or know of a better way to do this?
I have access to any tools I'll need, vlan switches, virtual machines, etc...

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
