RE: Hacking the Linksys WRT54G

You can really do whatever you want with the WRT54G, but keep in mind
that memory and "storage" is very limited.

I would be very interested in seeing a wireless print server reflashed
to drive various parallel port I/O pins or perhaps drive an interesting
USB device.  I am sure that parallel port 802.11b printservers cant be
too expensive these days.
