cluberti Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 What linksys router are you using, and what revision number is it (should say on the bottom)?
kabucek Posted May 14, 2008 Author Posted May 14, 2008 v5 i think this is the crappy router that you can't upgrade.
cluberti Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 v5 i think this is the crappy router that you can't upgrade.Correct, it's not running Linux anymore (so no upgrade).
PC_LOAD_LETTER Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 yeah you have to get a WRT54GL to get the same functionality as an old school WRT54Gbut you can kill still flash 3rd party firmwares (ddwrt micro will fit) to the WRT54Gv5 http://www.bitsum.com/openwiking/owbase/ow...?WRT54G5_CFE#h9I've never flashed a V5 myself but i found these instructions for a guy that works for me to try but he chickened out and stayed with the linksys firmware
kabucek Posted May 14, 2008 Author Posted May 14, 2008 yesi did that also,and I tried to load like 20 other distr's that I was able to find on wiki.. and other sites.but the same RED site result.
