Linksys WRT54G router with dd-wrt is 100x more best than d-links
Or, dd-wrt for x86 installed on an old 400mhz x86 box with a couple of nics
and an atheros based wireless card will blow all the rest of them into
drydock for a refurbishing. Any old x86 box, k6 or better, 32 megs of dram
and a $3 cf adaptor on the end of an ide cable, no hard drive or floppy, runs
headless. Download the image, dd it to a cf card, plug the cf card into the
adapter and power it up. Configures from a web page at (resetable)
192.168.1.1 with any browser. Whats not to like?
Big case, noisy fan, too much power consumption...
There are some versions of that which will fit in the WRT54G, but some
services will be stripped due to a lack of resources in some versions of the
WRT54G. The best was the WRT54G-L, but those are under armed guard paid for
by whoever was lucky enough to find one.
Is this the good one?
