The good thing about wrt54gl over wrt54gs and wrt54g that it can be flashed with 3rd part firmware without complicated procedure. <br /><br />I ran some test on speedtest.net with qos enabled router got 8ms ping compared to dlink dir655 7ms. Though router doesn\'t disconnect itself like dir655. <br /><br />Some people like wireless N router so don\'t. Compared to dlink dir655 wireless N router and wrt54gl with custom firmware, both have about same range. Dir655 has higher throughout rate but wrt54gl is more consitant. </div></div></div><div class="hreview"><div class="review_header"><span>Reviewed by: <span class="reviewer">KGKD</span></span> on <span class="dtreviewed">03-Sep-07</span><span class="rating_container"> <b>Rating:</b><span class="rating"> <img src="http://i.pgcdn.com/images/rating_3_newr.gif" height=11 width=60 alt="3 Star Review" border=0></span></span></div><div class="description"><div class="strengths"><b>Strengths:</b>Performing well, I have a MAC and a PC both hooked up.</div><div class="weaknesses"><b>Weaknesses:</b>\'Easy One Step CD\' does not apply to MAC Users.

Since then we have had two power outages. One was only about 3 seconds, but the other was a couple of hours. Both times it caused the router to stop talking to my cable modem. The first time I reset the router and the modem and it began working again. The second time that didn\'t work and I had to also, spoof the MAC number from the computer.<br /><br />The power was off for hours I unplugged the router until hours after it came back on so it wasn\'t a reconnect surge that did it, just a power loss.<br /><br />Tonight when I got home I switched outlets the router power module was plugged into - unplugged from one outlet and plug into my BackUPS power supply. This caused the router to lose its mind again - this makes three times in as many weeks. This time what I did before didn\'t fix it. I ran their \"Adviser\" utility [a fixit wizard], and after screwing around for 10-15 minutes it told me the internet wasn\'t working. No kidding, that\'s why I ran it in the first place.<br /><br />I called LinkSys tech support. They put me on hold for an hour and then disconnected. I called back and went through their tone jail again. This time I got a person who couldn\'t speak nor understand English. She\'d never heard of Houston and had me spell it, then had me confirm it by spelling it back \"h as in Hotel, o as in Oscar, . . .\" She hadn\'t heard of FireFox, insisted I locate and start IE, and wouldn\'t accept failing to reach Google was a good test, insisting I try Yahoo. Then asked me to \"get behind my screen.\" I tried about five times to figure out what she really wanted, but could never understand her and finally hung up.<br /><br />I\'ve spent my entire Sunday evening trying to get this router working, after spending a whole morning a couple of weeks ago and 2-3 hours the second time it lost power, day before yesterday. <br /><br />Apparently any time you remove power from this router it goes belly up.<br /><br />I think it\'s too late to return it, but I\'m fed up with it. I don\'t remember having any of these problems with my BEFSR41 in the seven plus years I used it.<br /><br />[Note added April 08]  After one of these power glitches it removed my wireless security.  I didn\'t realize this and my network was left wide open to all for several months.</div></div></div><div class="hreview"><div class="review_header"><span>Reviewed by: <span class="reviewer">pgyoon</span></span> on <span class="dtreviewed">30-Sep-06</span><span class="rating_container"> <b>Rating:</b><span class="rating"> <img src="http://i.pgcdn.com/images/rating_3_newr.gif" height=11 width=60 alt="3 Star Review" border=0></span></span></div><div class="description"><div class="strengths"><b>Strengths:</b>3rd party firmware upgradeable</div><div class="weaknesses"><b>Weaknesses:</b>More expensive than other brand.</div><div class="summary"> <b>Summary:</b>Actually, this is an old model of Liksys WRT54G (version 4 or lower) which has more capacity for the firmware than these day\'s model (version 5).<br />You can upgrade the firmware with 3rd party firmware.</div></div></div><div class="hreview"><div class="review_header"><span>Reviewed by: <span class="reviewer">heffalump</span></span> on <span class="dtreviewed">30-Sep-06</span><span class="rating_container"> <b>Rating:</b><span class="rating"> <img src="http://i.pgcdn.com/images/rating_4_newr.gif" height=11 width=60 alt="4 Star Review" border=0></span></span></div><div class="description"><div class="strengths"><b>Strengths:</b>Flexibility - this Linux version of the WRT54G combined with 3rd party firmware will expand the feature set of this router.</div><div class="weaknesses"><b>Weaknesses:</b>None so far:</div><div class="summary"> <b>Summary:</b>I purchased this item b/c for whatever reason, the later versions of Linksys WRT54G have less capability than their earlier ones.

You download the firmware you want with this router which makes it totally customizable. If you do not use this feature, I suggest buying the cheaper WRT54G router because it is cheaper. It\'s been on continuously for about one month and no problems to report. <br />  <br />  <br /> This is one of the best purchases I have made in a long time. <br />  <br /> </div></div></div><div class="hreview"><div class="review_header"><span>Reviewed by: <span class="reviewer">orangespot</span></span> on <span class="dtreviewed">09-Aug-06</span><span class="rating_container"> <b>Rating:</b><span class="rating"> <img src="http://i.pgcdn.com/images/rating_5_newr.gif" height=11 width=60 alt="5 Star Review" border=0></span></span></div><div class="description"><div class="strengths"><b>Strengths:</b>Best part about this router is the ability to flash it with new firmware from the linux community.</div><div class="weaknesses"><b>Weaknesses:</b>None.</div><div class="summary"> <b>Summary:</b>The router is easy to set up with the included instructions.

I had an wrt54gs v3 previously and was in love with it so the wrt54gl was very familiar.<br /><br />This is one of the better routers for those who like to tinker. I recommend the nslu2 to complement this router. Excellent support not from linksys but from the opensource people who created firmware for the linksys wrt54 line.<br /><br />This router really can\'t be beat since there are numerous faqs and mods you can apply to this router if you want to do more.  The features are extensive if you use 3rd party firmware instead of the vanilla linksys one but you can\'t go wrong with either.</div></div></div><div class="hreview"><div class="review_header"><span>Reviewed by: <span class="reviewer">ScottiePP7</span></span> on <span class="dtreviewed">27-Jul-06</span><span class="rating_container"> <b>Rating:</b><span class="rating"> <img src="http://i.pgcdn.com/images/rating_5_newr.gif" height=11 width=60 alt="5 Star Review" border=0></span></span></div><div class="description"><div class="strengths"><b>Strengths:</b>Easy setup once you get into router, great signal strength compaired to my old DLink</div><div class="weaknesses"><b>Weaknesses:</b>Setup from the CD didn\'t work for me so it took a little longer for me to get it working but as I said- once in the router through a browser the interface was still nice and easy to work with.</div><div class="summary"> <b>Summary:</b>I got a good deal on this router but it is easily worth the money.
