- thodgson, on 06/18/2008, -0/+4Great. I have one of these routers :P
- agisten, on 06/18/2008, -0/+4Damn, those routers been opened/hack/modified and bricked. This great post shows another good reason to switch to alternative firmware like Tomato and DD-WRT
- 3style, on 06/18/2008, -0/+3Absolutely Agisten, not just because of security, but the huge increase in features is a plus as well
- 0xception, on 06/19/2008, -0/+2i have about 5 of these 2 WRTSL54GS's and a few ASUSs running openWRT and some custom spins of openWRT doing things from hotspots, VPN/custom QoS scripts and Asterisk clients (all for testing/dev purposes)
these things are great because they are so damn cheap. I suggest you get an ASUS or one of the WRTSL54GS's that have USB drives and use that to attach extra storage.- CataKlysmiC, on 06/19/2008, -0/+2been doing this myself with an old wrt54g router... you wouldn't happen to know which of the new routers to buy these days? in terms of antenna signal power etc.
- 3style, on 06/19/2008, -0/+1By the way some people are thinking this is old, but it is for firmware 1.00.9 the exploit was released 3/11/2008. This describes how to inject changes into the router using scripts to bypass the admin login.
