UPDATE:

Ok, so I did finally manage to convert the USR8054 to the USR5450. The firmware does indeed work. Here are my notes:

1) When you flash with the 5450 bin file and your USR8054 reboots, it will now take the persona of a AP by default.
2) DHCP for the USR5450 is NOT turned on.
3) You have to use the supplied utility to change the IP of 0.0.0.0 to say, 192.168.123.254. The utility was not reliable to pick up the USR5450. Maybe it's just my wireless adapter. I had to refresh the utility a number of times to detect the presence of the AP.
4) Once the new IP is set, it reboots and using the utility, you will see the new IP when it detects the AP's presence.
5) Only the LAN Port 4 will work. I used this instead of the wireless as it is much more stable. I did not get a decent wireless even after it rebooted and partly because my wireless was setup as DHCP.
6) Set a static IP to your computer LAN port, say 192.168.123.253 and plug into port 4. Then use the web browser to get the web admin interface at 192.168.123.254 as you had earlier configured for.

I was checking back to see the instructions on how to flash this thing.

Once you flash the firmware, you have to go into the router (through port 4, the router has a IP address of 0.0.0.0)... anyway... there might be a few gotchas when doing the "upgrade".

I'll look around and see if I can't find some instructions on this...
