Linksys WRT54GL with DDWRT Firmware

By default Linksys WRT54GL with original firmware it's only could the operated in AP node, so it could not play a role as station or client, but when it was upgraded firmware with DDWRT (www.dd-wrt.com), there the Linksys intensity began to be felt, it went up a class from the economic class to the premium class, firmware made by Germans, Sebastian Gottschall a.k.a BrainSlayer, it was thought could increase the achievement of access point.

Had a basis the writer's experience, this type of Linksys access point (AP) that was suitable to be upgraded to DDWRT, was Linksys WRT54GL, apart from AP type this, the possibility of failing update very big, so should not attempt you upgraded firmware without knowledge and the experience.
To upgrade DDWRT firmware, the first step download beforehand firmware dwrt in it's site: www.dd-wrt.com, chose his version in accordance with your wish, better be chosen by you the mini version beforehand, for the sake of your Linksys security equipment, after in download to your computer, you entered to web the configuration of Linksys WRT54GL, you entered the part administration, then chose the column upgraded firmware, did upgraded, remembered for the process upgraded firware, lest the electricity connection was killed or went out, as a result if happening thus will damage your Linksys, after having the message upgraded Successfull, was carried out by you the process of the ReSet, so that stabler, afterwards after resetted, did upgraded repeated with used firmware that standart, remembered once more after the process upgraded was finished or was successful, did the ReSet for two times. Was like this the process scenario upgraded firmware DDWRT, in other the article will be discussed by us several feature DDWRT.
