erm sorry if i repeat wat other forumers hav ask i wud lyk 2 noe wat r the avantages of dd-wrt .. i noe it hs more features but does it boost performance of wirelesS?

tq

Pretty much everything...Wireless , A-Z...!

you can enable Speedbooster feature which is only available "originally" for GS m GX version with your normal G version. in terms of performance surely increase eg WDS mode etc...

I got a WRT54G v5 here and I just recently read about how to upgrade to DD-WRT. I say "Why not give it a shot and flash it" ... first I follow the guide:
http://www.bitsum.com/openwiking/owbase/ow.asp?WRT54G5%5FCFE

Then prasys passed me a link for latest firmware which supports PPPoE, and I tried ...... SUCCESS. It's working and fast !!
BTW I'm using firmware: DD-WRT v23 SP1 Final (07/01/06) micro

Thanks prasys for assisting and help configuring it. Now I can surf better haha.

i re-try but cannot ping it already...

can ddwrt has more than 1 wireless ssid for different security level???

its a hassle.. coz my computer uses WPA-PSK while my NDS uses onli WEP protocol.. and not to mention my pda onli support WPA-TKIP

iayo if hassle ma dun use the encryption lor...just disable it. then hide ur SSID...

u can configure to use chilispot auth system which works like any standard hotspot management system which requires user to enter username and password before can enter the networks...

btw, have u ever try tmnet hotspot? It works something similar like that system..

edit : i miss understanding one part of it. U need another machine running chillispot and connected to WRT54 for them to works...still in theory mode, haven't get my wrt54gl yet!

with new v24 alpha...u can set up to 3 different SSID with different security level

check out at their main website for details...

Anyone tested the version v24 alpha? :-) 3ssid with one router is just like Cisco Airnet Access point

anyone here can gimme his ip or anything so i am able to c whats inside that firmware? (dun worry i dunno how to hack and i wont change settings, just to wanna browse through the features and settings )

His IP ? Who are you referring to ?

@mokh

I got a good place for you to fix that(works for me).

Click here!

Anyway, use Putty for secure shell client. Do not copy the commands immedietely. Fill it line by line cuz some of the signs is already given. (ignore this if you dont understand wth I was saying)


Ooohhh.... anyway this might not fix it, but is useful if you plan to run bt 24/7.

To fix your problem, try using Port Range Forwarding, since it is originally from linksys firmware .

One more thing, the firmware will reconnect internet connection if you change a setting at port, dmz ,etc.

Ok really want to know.
Somone told me GL is out this week..

is it true?? which shop???

Linksys WRT54GL is available at lowyat 3rd Floor (forgot the company name)..price tag at RM260 or below

owh great.. thanks m8.. will inform bout the news.

Hi there, I got V5 too. Where can I get the latest firmware like the one you are using wright now?

Want to feel the DD-WRT mania too ..............

Fom my understanding, first you follow the guide from www.bitsum.com. Then u apply the firmware that prasys gave you. Am I wright?

Make sure u follow the guide and convert to DD-WRT first
Then go here:
http://www.dd-wrt.com/dd-wrtv2/down.php?pa...%2F2006+-+0707/

Download the dd-wrt.v23_micro_wrt54g.bin make sure is the micro version else u cant flash

Thanks, will try it when I'm ready.

Woops, one more question. On the guide given, the author advised to use the micro generic version and not the one labelled WRT54G but you gave me the micro wrt54g version.

Is this alright?

sure...the new QoS allow u to use BT productively...when u want to use IE, the router automatically give priority to HTTP connection while slowing the BT connection..
