Been using dd-wrt for quite some time on my wrt54g v5.

Have a few question need to be clarify, the current firmware i'm using is v23 SP3, if I want to upgrade the firmware to v24 SP1, is there any special steps should I take or just update the firmware like that.

Another thing is about the wireless xmit power, how much should I set it to optimize the connection for 1 house (using the default value now and having some bad connections sometimes)

Hmm, sure is mini and not micro?

Any wrt54g v5 users here? or probably applicable to all ddwrt users

Whenever my housemate runs the flying spaghetti monster clients, it spawns crap load of connections and rest of us will suffer slow web surfing/disconnection from other online games

Is there anyway to reduce these problems?
