I'm rocking the WRT54G now as well. My DI-624 was fine until a power outage recently. No damage to anything, I shut down/unplugged everything myself before the worst of an electrical storm hit. Powered stuff back up and the router refused to talk to the cable modem. Tried everything to get it to work, then went and bought me some Linksys. :icon25:

I'm going to get the new Buffalo WHR-G125 as my next router (if I don't go with N by then). The dd-wrt community seems to love them and they are better than the current wrt linksys line (as it should, since the Buffalo is newer)

Well I finally updated my firmware.
I ended up following the instructions from this site.

how do you like it?

I haven't really used it yet.
I have to figure out which WPA2 to use.
And I might use MAC filtering.
Also have to get it hooked up to my other router (BEFSR81).

WPA-2 Pre-shared key

Sure, use mac... dosent make that much of a diff really..

Well I got the wireless part going. Now I just need to hook up my other router to it.

Well I got the second router hooked up. I had it plugged into the WAN port instead of the LAN port.

I don't think the PS3 uses that, which kinda sucks.

hey, how about giving us updates every 15 mins?

Post by **AmIdYfReAk** » Mon Jun 18, 2007 8:07 pm

Humm, you are 100% right.. you may need to fall back to WPA-PSK untill the firmware comes out with WPA-2 Support.

Actually, I just updated the PS3 and they now allow it. :icon14:

How about an hourly update?

Now I just have to buy a wireless adapter for my 360.
Is there a way with DD-WRT to limit bandwidth on a certain computer?

Post by **AmIdYfReAk** » Tue Jun 19, 2007 2:36 am

wired? yes..

Wireless, i dont know

Post by **FragaGeddon** » Tue Jun 19, 2007 3:01 am

The computer I want to limit is wired.
The only things that will be wireless is my laptop, 360 & PS3.
Can you give me some insight on how to do this?

Sure man!

Log onto the Router, Apps and gaming, then QOS, then there will be "eathernet port priority"

Set the port to what connection speed you want it at.. you dont need to touch the Prioity.
