<br>(Too bad I didn't try DD-WRT on a flaky 54G before buying this one. Similar issues.)</td></tr></tbody></table></blockquote><div><br>You might have had mixed results with your old one. Up through v4 of the hardware the 54G's had pretty standard hardware configs, and a nice roomy flash (4MB I think). In future versions cisco scaled back the flash to 2MB, which meant you had to install a smaller subset of the WRT distro that would fit in that footprint. In the end each successive version got a little trickier to deal with. The 54GL version is basically the V4 rev of the hardware. The easier upgrade process may work well for you. <br>
<br>I don't know if I'd recommend Tomato over DD-WRT. I would half-guess that as long as whatever you use works and is stable, you'll be happy. :) I've used DD-WRT and I liked it very much. <br><br>-Rob<br>
