And also I wouldn't say it is much harm but the harm will certainly increase when you increase the power rate.

hi, i have set the static ip for my wireless & wired connection, i checked my BT's listening port with http://www.canyouseeme.org/ , the site always can see the port with wireless connection but not wired one, anything i set wrongly? FYI on BT running, with wireless i could see many remote clients but wired only shown local clients with much much slower spd.  Appreciate your help, thks~
IMO, you only port forwarded to the wireless connection and did not port forward to your wired connection.

thks for reply, i already portforward both sad.gif
Alright, I tested out that site you gave and I don't think it is really accurate for me. I did try that and the ports that are opened for mine seems to be not detected by them wheres uTorrent detected it was opened.

I'm using WRT54G V3.1, last year I flashed it with HyperWRT_G_tofu10 until now. This firmware served me well compare with buggy orgianal firmware so I didn't follow up to flash the latest firmware.

Until recently my brother keeps using BT to download his stuffs, and my connection will hang or die after half hour or so, but his connection is still active and rocking, that's really annoying me!

So I want to know whether this DD-WRT firmware can solve this kinda problem? Can anyone explain to me how to do flashing to DD-WRT firmware for my case, remember I'm using HyperWRT not the orginal one so I wonder any different about the flashing method.
Well there shouldn't be any problems but if you are worried you can still flash it back to the original Linksys firmware first and then proceed to flash with DD-WRT.

help: wrt54gsv4 flashing - newbie question

this is my 1st time flashing a router, my new wrt54gsv4 is totally incompetent to surf net + run bt together, so i decide to try on other firmware

by looking into this page
http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/WRT54...lation_Tutorial

i know i need to flash dd-wrt.v23_mini_generic first,
then flash dd-wrt.v23.std.zip

i have a little question before my first flash in my life, i found there are
dd-wrt.v23_mini_wrt54gsv4 and dd-wrt.v23_wrt54gsv4 available in dl section, which v4 is my router version
so my question is, flash using generic and standard file as showm in tutorial or flash using wrt54gsv4 file to suit my router? or it doesn't matter ?

thanks in advance
For a peace of mind I would recommend you to use the wrt54gsv4 file though. I too used that file to flash my router and it works like a charm now.

I am learning to set the QoS. What is the ideal value for download and upload in kbps? i heard many says to set the value at 85%-90%. I use calculator to compute and it has decimal points. What value should i use?

I am on the 512kbps/256kbps package.
Well the best is do a bandwidth test first. From there, then only you set it to about 90% of the download speed. Same way goes to the upload.

noticed that WRT54 has many models so which one do you guys recommend anyway?
do you guys use it as router + modem or just plain router/modem?
does this router really work with charm after flashed with DD-WRT like everyone said?
i've an existing linksys AG241 though
WRT54G family is not a router + modem combo. It is just a pure wireless router which can be flashed to a 3rd party firmware for much improved stability and features.

The shopper told me that the factory even can detect it after we reflash back to the original firmware, wondering how they detect it. If I flash it many times dunno they can detect it or not, tempting to overwrite the flash memory inside. I did it twice just now.. No problem.
I don't think they will be that free to check your firmware though. My WRT54G was struck by lightning before and I sent it back for RMA and they were willing to replace a new one for me after it was checked by the service centre.

so which WRT54G model should i get?
GL? or plain G? or GS?
mind to advise?
thanks
In this case I would recommend the WRT54GL. If you go for WRT54G or GS now, most likely they are all the batch with reduced RAM memory thus you need to flash it to the micro version of DD-WRT.

Just curious... I am using WRT54GC v2 (the one with antenna). Will I be able to use this firmware as well?
Here are the list of routers tested and supported by the DD-WRT team :

right now im sharing my internet with 6 other ppl (2 houses) & they all located a floor above me. my concern is that they only got a weak signal from my gsv4. i have 3 solutions in mind rite now...
1. buy a high gain antenna (7 or 8dbi) (>$150)
2. drag a cable up their houses then put a switch in there. (>$60 each)
3. buy another access point & put it in 1 of the houses or in my house (gsv4 - front, new ap - back) (>$150)

whats the best solution in term of cost & the quality of the signal. becos i need to make sure all my customer get good internet speed. rite now im thinking of getting another access point...

this can be configured using wds rite? but need 2 wrt54g, am i rite?
Well, in my house, I just use my old D-Link DI-624+ to act as a repeater meaning all wireless signals will go through there and then it goes to my Linksys WRT54GS to do the QoS.

what about the linksys? can it also accept wifi connections from pcs n laptops? becos im planning to widen the wireless coverage so that i have 2 aps.
Sure there won't be any problems but the reason why I didn't enable wireless LAN on the WRT54GS was to reduce the load on it.

just need some opinion...thanks in advance...

my wrt54g using dd-wrt firmware, recently kena strike by lightning...it is not dead, thought...i can still get into the admin webpage...use wifi to surf net...but, noticed port 1 not functioning properly...sometime other ports oso like not stable liao...

so, i wonder wht could the cause be?...hardware kong?...or firmware need to reflash again?...cheers...
This could be the hardware faulty resulting from the lightning strike. I've experienced before that my WAN and LAN port 1 was fried and sent it back for RMA.

If you want to send it back for RMA, you can but you will most likely be returned with a v5/v6 of WRT54G meaning you will need to use DD-WRT micro version.

Linksys WRT54GL would most probably be your next option.

Anyone ever encouter the router(WRT54G) suddenly dc, u can't access to the router via pc cable or wireless?
Mine happen last month, so i send it back for warranty. still no reply from them. sad.gif
Probably due to router hang. Which version of the WRT54G are you using and how frequent does it 'hang' ?

Should i get the G or GL model for this router?

I need it for my home usage.

What version the router have to be in order to be able to flash this firmware?
Every version is made possible to be flashed to this firmware but I think choosing the GL version should be better as it has more RAM memory compared to the others.
