I'm currently using a wrt54g however I will be leaving this one at home when I move. The other thing I need is something that supports more then 10 ports forwarded.
Wish I could get my Cisco 806 to perform correctly.....
i have a linksys router that isn't being used if you want it
i actually like my wrt54g, it's loaded up with dd-wrt which is handy. i've been thinking about going to openwrt... so yeah, the router you've already got.

bad thing is i have 2 others in my room that went bad and haven't ever sent them in
what bricked em?
ozntz
toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
first one latency just takes off and responds at 2000+ and the second one the wireless becomes unreliable with packet loss

Thats alright I don't have any money right now anyway
just get in with tolton and i'm sure he'd hook you up. the problem is that they're shutting down the networking program next year (probably)...

damn that sucks but i could kind of tell that it would happen sooner or later since the classes were getting smaller.

I need an access point. I'm buying a Gigabit switch soon.
anything that will run openbsd should work
:)

openbsd has pf.
pf is awesome.
ergo openbsd is the bestest router evar.

IOS is an enormous pain in the ass, and most of their hardware is crap.
Hi, so I've been looking for a router solution that I can set up when I move since I have pretty much the same issue that ozzy had (past tense, sorry oz about your situation!!).
The cheaper route would be going for the WRT54G[S,T] and that looks ok, but I want a customizable solution (not saying dd-wrt isn't, but open/netbsd are preferable). I've narrowed it down a bit to a few different boards for a wireless router:
linksys wrt54gl ~$65
alix2c0 ~$116
alix2c1 ~$121
alix2c2 ~$132
routerboard 532 ~$170
soekris net4826 ~$200
I think the alix boards win. I've also been looking for a combination set of boards to make a wireless ap/router in the pc/104 formfactor, I can't really find a good way to put it together without it being overly time intensive. Here's a portal for pc/104 bus board manufacturers, so that maybe you can find some:

ya i'm not buying a house after all so might try to setup one
.. .. what?! why?
ozntz
toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
The property line was misrepresented to me.
that sucks
you found that out when you were about to sign?
imma buy myself a wrt54g + hit up some dd-wrt after christmas
right now i have a mad sketchy router
ozntz
toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
watch what ver you buy not all of them can do it
yeah just double check:
http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Supported_Devices
only thing that sucks is that it's hard to find which version you're getting when you buy :(
ozntz
toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
no its not you just look at the serial number on the box
ozntz
toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
my bad, i assumed you'd order online, and i don't think they change the photo of the box for each sale.
ozntz
toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
good point if that is the case
plus i didn't think the WRT54G was still on shelves, because the 54GS and GL are out :o
ozntz
toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
S is speed booster and L is for linux with higher prices last I checked G was still available and cheaper however they have cut its contents to save costs over the years
ya but the versions supported differ for dd-wrt on that page
ozntz
toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
i didn't really analyze the page i was justing looking at the sn vs ver
i'm really enjoying dd-wrt v24.

the law is no protection
should I install dd-wrt on my wrt54gl? I haven't really looked into the alternative firmwares because I just use it as a wireless AP not a router.
my wrt65gs with dd-wrt works as a wireless ap just fine
asemisldkfj
the law is no protection
it it any better than the linksys firmware though? I'm sure it would work fine, I just don't know if I care enough to do it.
you can crank up the wattage :D
oh nice. maybe i'll do that this weekend, the iphone has trouble with some places in my house
