He most likely means the Sveasoft firmware. Try this search: http://www.google.com/search?q=sveasoft+wrt54g I've used the currently freely available Sveasoft Satori 4.0 firmware with pretty good results, except under heavy bittorrent traffic where dmesg starts listing "ip_conntrack: table full, dropping packet." The free version of Alchemy 5.0 should be available soon with support for the latest v2.2 WRT54G boxes (Satori 4.0 does not work on the v2.2 WRT54G boxes). The HyperWRT firmware also can do the power boost and has none of the politics that surrounds the Sveasoft firmware: http://www.hyperdrive.be/hyperwrt/ http://www.linksysinfo.org/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewforum&f=25 OpenWRT is another option if you're handy at command line stuff. Finally, you may get better results if you simply move your access point to the 1st or 2nd floor so it is more in the center of the area you want wireless coverage. Can you run CAT5 ethernet cable to such an area, or use an ethernet-over-phone/ethernet-over-AC adapter to get ethernet to that more central location?
