Hi guys, a basic question

if i bought the router, do i have to flash tomato firmware first then only the Victek OR i can directly flash the Victek firmware directly that I get from http://victek.is-a-geek.com/tomato.html ??

Whoops, I meant to say that I plugged the cable from an ADSL modem into the WRT54GL. My bad there! Still trying to figure out if my settings are borked royally.

help please

try to set your adsl modem to bridged mode and see?


yep, you can straight away flash to victek's. but make sure u got the correct flash for your correct router. and ya!, remember to do the 30/30/30 reset to be safe.

30/30/30 hard reset

but too bad victek firmware is abit outdated. the newest tomato should be 1.25

According to his posts on... I think the site was Linksys Info which is in Spanish, he is just making sure the firmware is up to par (Stable) as there was already a major error in the official 1.24 version of Tomato.

hmmm im using tomato and so far so good. what's the difference between victeck and normal tomato? i heard it has better qos? well, so far im ok with tomato's qos and couldnt really reach peak bandwidth cuz now in my home there're only 3 ppl using. next week i'll go back to my hostel and there will be 7 ppl using. that time only i'll reconsider if i wanna flash to victeck or not.

victek's firmware can set amount of bandwidth for each client while ori tomato cannot. that's the main difference.

barry80, go for this test version, after 1390 downloads no issues has been reported. Almost of complaints was due to inexperience from user. I'll fix as stable version today.

Victek

I am wondering in OpenWRT , its possible for people to have more then 1 AP (i.e 1 AP for Guest and 1 AP for normal users). I just want to ask if its possible for you to do that !

P.S - Victek , Tu eliges

for normal usage..it's perfect for me...no issues. same as 1.23 version. thanks alot again to victek.

1.25 ND version seems to have better wireless quality compared to 1.23 ND...

I've just upgraded it. It works very well and I'll post a picture of my heatsink most. Applied a bit more of thermal paste and pasted a heatsink so that the router would run even cooler under heavy load !

Hi prasys, no doubt, OpenWRT is the right answer... but .. wait a while .. you will see some interesting news in next RAF release ...

IcEMoCHa, hehe, you got it .. yes, passive mode and new wireless Auto channel set the best channel for your wireless environment.. this is the reason why Tomato is more convenient for non skill people playing wireless channel and interferences ... the target is to have a firmware for dummies. Don't misunderstand my words, I mean.. easy to set, ready to go.
