Re: WRT54G as a router

Personally I would....
I usually add the Sveasoft update and turn off the WAP ....
It is also an easy way to admin the thing
from your laptop, I set it up, turn off beacon, use WEP and Mac Address
actually use real low power setting like 1 mw unless you are concerned
that some real slick local will hack it and it is on a business system.

My 2 cents: Never get caught between an ISP and a telco in a pissing match!!
                   The customer looses every time!!!
