|

Some of the dilemmas ordinary internet users have to face at least once or twice in their lives is connection failure or temporary lapses when it comes to the signal. The sad thing is, most routers nowadays cost a bundle of money and yet waste a lot of time and energy due to the instability of the wireless connection. If you’re trying to save on money and yet want good wireless connection all throughout, the best and most reliable router would have to be the Linksys WRT54G, particularly its latest model, which is the WRT54GL.


In fact, there are a lot of ways on how to hack into the firmware of the router and install better third party software to primp up your online experience. Since the router is embedded with Linux, it can definitely support all kinds of Linux open source third party software made to boost connection speed, concentrate bandwidth on certain programs, and the like. For instance, the latest version has at least 16 MB of RAM, 4MB of flash, and 200Mhz CPU, making it compatible to run the full version of DD-WRT, a free Linux-based firmware designed with several features such as support for Kai network, security features, Wireless Distribution System, Daemon-based services, and the like.

For most WRT54GL users, this particular wireless router has proven itself to be one of the best that Linksys has ever released in the market mainly because there haven’t been instances where connection failure was rampant. So far the speed and performance has remained constant, some suggesting up to 100 kbps, and allows internet users to install added security features for surefire online protection.
