WRT54G Router Firmware
Well, I'm totally blasted away with "Tomato" firmware for these routers:
http://www.polarcloud.com/tomato Some screenshots here: http://openlinksys.info/photogallery.php?album_id=9 8O @Rui, I dumped pfSense at home for this, on a WRT54G v1.0. The firmware is just awesome :!: The QoS (Quality of Service) for VoIP is just second to none. I can now download many eMule streams and bittorrent, without affecting the voice. This is truly a masterpiece :) So if anyone wants to convert a cheap WRT54G router into s $800.00+ router, get yourself one of these, and flash it with the "Tomato" firmware :lol: NOTE: The WRT54G or WRT54GS must be version 1.x to 4.x The newer models, v5.x and 6.x, are trash! -kwag |
I may have to try this one out. Currently i am using dd-wrt on my v4. Good find Kwag.

Hi heyitsme,
Tomato blows away DD-WRT in every aspect :!: DD-WRT is basically a "face lift" of the original Linksys, with some additions. Tomato is a software rewrite, with many bug fixes and additions :) -kwag |
Well kwag im going to take your word for it. I think my linksys needs a facelift, though she is a little younger than your badboy v.1. Yeah i am going to have to purchase a second wrt. Probably have to go with the GL, because of those crap vortex or whatever firmware is on the latest ones.

I just bought a WRT54GS from here: http://www.tekunix.com/store.htm via eBay, and after I bought it, I noticed the guy was right here in my hometown :lol: :rotf: So I actually called him on the phone, and went to pick it up myself :!: He dropped the shipping charges :cool: Here's the auction I won: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=280053227022 See the buyer: KVCD :D :lol: This thing is running like a charm :D -kwag |

Then it's because it surely is GOOD. Quote:
I would gladly buy from USA but then I would have to pay for extra shipping $ plus I would have to pay for customs. So instead of ~$120 I'd probably pay ~$250. That's a lot of dough we're talking about here. And then I would have to get rid of my net4521 which won't be easy and that already cost me a lot of $ not so long ago. I guess I'll keep pfsense at work on a more powerful PC and I'll stick to m0n0wall on my home soekris even if I have to sacrifice QoS because of that. But thanks for the tip, though. :D Cheers buddy |
