If you have one of the Linksys WRT54G wireless router and you’re using the standard firmware, then you’ve probably noticed the horrible stability of the router. Mine (WRT54G v8) had to be reset every 2-3 days especially after downloading from BT (BitTorrent). And at times, during reset, the router will just “brick” up temporarily. No technique of resetting will get it to work. All I can do is leave it for a couple of days and perform a 30-30-30 hard reset again.
So, finally, after surfing around, I found a custom firmware that I could use for the router. DD-WRT is a custom firmware made primarily for the Linksys WRT54G. After the upgrade, I noticed that the router is so much more reliable. Also, there’s additional features included in the custom firmware that is not on the standard version.
If you have a Linksys WRT54G, I would suggest to upgrade. =)
