Re: New Firmware - Built in TX mW selection UPGRAD said by chipd: What does the 10Mbps/half duplex do?
It slows the network card down to 10Mbps and switch to half duplex (ie one way communication at a time).
Not sure if it's 100% required, but I always like to do it before flashing firmware. |

Re: New WRT54G Firmware - Built in TX mW selection What do the TX antenna and RX antenna options do? How do we know which one is better? Right, Diversity, Left? |

 | They are for using an external antenna. If you are using the stock antennas then Auto is the best setting.
If you replace of the stock antennas with a more powerful external antenna you can force its use by setting the txant and rxant commands. |

 | I think you must be using the Wifibox or some other firmware. On mine they are labled "Left", "Right", "Auto". I'm sure the behavior is the same as it's a simple modification that just reflects an internal command state outwards. |
