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.

Make sure u follow the guide and convert to DD-WRT first 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?   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  |

QUOTE(anfernee @ Jul 25 2006, 04:46 PM) Do you all know how to change the Cisco LED thing from orange to white or off using the DD-WRT ? When flashed to DD-WRT, it's like the LED has no use right? I tried playing it by holding the button and the color changes but nothing has been done.  Anyone knows how to program the button into an on/off switch for the Wi-fi?  |

QUOTE(mobiusone @ Aug 17 2006, 09:04 AM) phew...done it in less than 5 minutes Should be under QoS section, not too sure about it maybe u can explore urself Didnt ran into any troubles at all,everything proceeded smoothly.I worried too much in the first place lol. Plenty of new configuration and stuff like that,too bad i didnt have any time to explore it. Thanks guys btw...how do i limit the bandwidth of the wireless connection? instead of giving the wifi users within my vicinity full speed,i wanted to set the maximum speed for them to like 20-30 kbs. |

QUOTE(cvshi515 @ Aug 20 2006, 02:54 PM) Is the performance really far more better then the ori firmware? And if i not mistaken, the warranty will be void if we change the firmware. (mine was under 3 years warranty). Tat all depends hahaha ... my guess is the warranty would be void. QUOTE(User61 @ Aug 20 2006, 03:00 PM) Dude, read the thread from the beginning or just go to dd-wrt.com. I've seen users here with tens of thousands of posts but still don't know how to read the thread from the beginning and blabber before using their brains. This can only happen in LowYat.net This is why we have the forums, if all ppl know how to read they'll just Google themselves hahahahaha.  |

QUOTE(cvshi515 @ Aug 20 2006, 04:02 PM) Well i guess i still have to stick with the ori firmware for quite some time due to the warranty. Forget the warranty, you be better off with DD-WRT ! Here's the guide in case u dunno:But still did anyone of you tend to having the router hang after using for 15hours+? (actually that the reason why i'm planning for the firmware change). http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...dpost&p=8149354 Dun blame me if u mess up ur router, flash at ur own risk! |
