| Re: [Wireless] Need a replacement for WRT54G v5 If it's less than 30 days from purchase at circuit city, I would definately take it back to circuit city. My opinion, get one of the models that have the linux firmware base so you can upgrade the firmware with all the 3rd party that is available. There is plenty of posts on which ones can take the firmware. Definatly use the 30 day money back on this. Later... Mike... | |

DD-WRT recently came out with a firmware version for the V5. Yep, and you need the JTAG cable and have to crack it open to flash it. Too much trouble, IMO. | |

| Re: [Wireless] Need a replacement for WRT54G v5 I am now able to get into it by the Admin page thanks to a Hard Reset. I have 2 more weeks before my 30 days is up so should I return it for a different one? Will I be able to find a v4 at Circuit City or should I get a different model?

Cheyenne, WY | Re: [Wireless] Need a replacement for WRT54G v5 Go with one of the newer GL models. They allow all the 3rd party firmware upgrades. After 30 days, my advice changes. In the first 30 days of a Circuit City no questions asked return policy, this is a no brainer. Take it back. Later... Mike... | |

Thanks
