Sounds like you got an N in your bonnet. Stick with what works and add a second AP if need be.

oh I added a 2nd AP and made it into a repeater via dd-wrt54g firmware but that cuts the throughput by 50%.

The Linksys N router has a beta dd-wrt that functions on it I believe - that would be the "next" best thing.

In reality the WRT54G still is king because regular G is non-MIMO and only needs one antenna for RX/TX. N routers are less likely to be hacked and customized because of the multiple antenna issue.

The above re N being more secure is incorrect, in my opinion.

(I hope the SUBJECT of this thread has a typo, left out an "O"?)
