bro, too many good reviews on the other side about buffalo routers beeing better than WRT54GL and how they have
dumped WRT54GL, is buffalo good when it comes to high power operations? thanks boss  icon_rolleyes.gif
*
yes, i have good faith in buffalo router, especially on the discontinued WHR-G54S. Can outperform WRT54GL easily (in term of wireless capability). New router WHR-G125 got better wifi performance but the unattachable antenna is real cons, unless been mod with extra antenna socket.

Anyway here my preferences.

WHR-G125 > WHR-G54S > WRT54GL > WHR-HP-G54

forgot to add. Heat issue in buffalo router is sweat.gif but i don't see any effect in it's performance yet. Another thing is, if you broke/lost the adapter; there is no way of getting the 3rd party replacement. whistling.gif

owh, azmi hamzah. u 'perli' me meh?

i found my adapter already, i 'nekad' to search in the house and suddenly found my friend kitten stole it and hide under the owner bed

no, never intended to perli u. ohmy.gif

i broke my first WHR-G125 power adapter during DIY POE setup. Changed to third party 5v 2A adapter from Jln Pasar; work fine for a day before fried the router board. The adapter happen to broke too sweat.gif sweat.gif

Total damage : Rm155 (router) + Rm20 (5v adapter) = RM175, but the experience was priceless thumbup.gif

just share my golden tips.

1. You need to set up "Keep Alive" setting. It keeps rebooting the wds ap(s) in time interval. Let say in your situation 2 or 3 hours the wds link went dead. Just set it to reboot for every 2 hours. smile.gif

2. Block all p2p connections. Seriously, i bet 3 ap links with wds will add up about 30 concurrent users and it will deplete your router's memory. Or refer to (3)

3. Use high-end router. Not means industrial grade routers (Cisco etc). Just google up the open-source one. I think old PC with P4 1.7Ghz and 512Mb RAM would do the job nicely.

4. Yeah, dd-wrt v24 works more better than v23. I just finished upgrading all my 9 APs to v24 from v23 special. What can i say, it solved the 10% wireless packet error usually i encounter with v23. Now all my APs run at 100% Tx and 100% Rx. Charmed. smile.gif

5. Use better antenna. In this case, an outdoor industrial grade antenna with -8dBi / -12 dBi gain would enormously increase the wifi throughput and range as well.

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)

just update through webconfig page. use mini version.

i'm trying to jump into x86 version of dd-wrt. initial goal is to set-up dual-band wifi system which utilizes 5Ghz (11a band) for wireless backbone and normal 2.4Ghz (11b/g band) to serve wireless client.

Here are some of the screen shots smile.gif

What router is that?
*
routerboard-based dd-wrt router with 256MB RAM and capable of doing 600mW transmit power brows.gif

QUOTE(youliang @ Nov 11 2008, 12:49 PM)
currently set at 9mw..
it was all along at 6.. then i noticed this problem..so i increased the power to 9..

but then again, if im directly connected to the AP, theres no high ping and packet lost.. (notebook ---> AP)
*
errr... normal transmit power is at 70mW bro... 7-9mW is too low.

let me rephrase my sentence. when my computer connected to 1st router(bridge mode, not auto connect to streamyx), i can dial connection to streamyx from my computer, but when my computer connected to 2nd router(set to repeater bridge mode), i cant dial to streamyx from my computer. it seems like cant open the wat WAN port thingy. is it really cant dial from my computer through 2nd router?

you can try ppoe relay function

i didnt set any access restriction and of course my manual ip is valid one.

thats true SIRIM follows European ETSI and USA FCC regulations where its only approved for low power operations at
22dBm for 54Mbps and 22dBm for 54Mbps, with a built in 10dbi antenna the actual approved transmit power
should be:-

Watt = (Max Allowed dBm) - (antenna gain)
so the maximum allowed dBm for Malaysia is 27dBm - Senao antenna gain of 10dbi

27dBm - 10dbi = 17dBm
17dBm = 50mW Max!!!
*
you can always reduce the Tx power to 17dBm for this piece of sweet box. rolleyes.gif
