Interesting to see that a Linksys WRT54G v 5 is actually usable via dd-wrt. :) I could pick up v 5 cheap on ebay and extend my supplies of WRT54Gs. If you could please describe the area that the your WRT54Gs cover? Sveasoft released Talisman 1.2 RC3 and subsequently RC3b which now allows my WRT54Gs to connect via WDS with WPA2/AES. RC3 took some patience and RC3b was easy to function for my setup. 1.2 GA should be released within the next several weeks. Hopefully Sveasoft will soon have a micro firmware release (like dd-wrt) to function on a WRT54G v 5 router. The reason I stay with Sveasoft is the potential of their firmware; besides the Linksys WRT54G, WRT54GS and WRT54GL routers, Sveasoft plans to support Talisman firmware on some Buffalotech, ASUS, and other routers - important for us to have alternatives to the famed Linksys line since some Linksys routers have warped to a different non-Linux firmware. Also a Hotspot enabled router has been promised at some point & more! Regards.
