You'll see people asking the version question on eBay when buying a WRT54G, as most people who want these excellent WiFI routers want to modify the firmware to improve the functionality of the units. |
I agree they're excellent units (I have had one for a couple of weeks now) but I do question whether 'most' people want to modify the firmware. I think frequenting forums can lead to a distorted perspective on what 'most' people like to do with their PCs and other hardware.
I know enough about routers to know people like to hack a Linksys, but I wanted a Linksys because I heard it is a good router in its own right, not because I wanted to hack it.
