| said by dadkins :As others have posted, straight Out The Box(OTB) any will be fine. Flashing is possible even with this particular model though. A standard WRT54G v8 can accept DD-WRT v24 micro - this post is going through one. Exactly so. Not at all saying that the WRT54GL is not a better model, but that there would be no point in paying more for it, if you can nab a WRT54G v8 for less, which I believe that you can.
The main reason that I would really recommend staying with the Linksys firmware is that if his brother ever needs help, and for some reason the OP is not around, his brother will find it easier getting help with a standard set up, especially if under warranty.
For most networking assistance that I've done for other folks, I generally keep to the K.I.S.S. paradigm...saves a lot of potential headaches down the road. -- Deeds, not words |
