[GLLUG] Routers

[Richard Houser]

Ddwrt is a proprietary fork of openwrt, which supports a bit more stuff.  I
personally recommend Openwrt.  For hardware up to about >16mbps over nat,
the wrt54gl is great.  If you run lean, you can push into the mid 20s, but
I recommend a faster device for general use at that point.  I had just
added a low end 300mbps 802.11n ap to it for another $15.

that he might have a WRT54GL for sale. You might consider reaching out to
him (cc'd).

There are several open source firmwares for wireless routers and they are
all far better then the manufacturers firmware. I sure there are others on
the list that have their favorites, and I hope they chime in. I just think
ddwrt is a good place to start.
