Yes, you can go back to stock FW if you decide that the special FW (Tomato or DD-WRT) doesn't work out. I have a WRT-54GS, which is quite similar to the WRT-54L.
The stock FW worked OK for me. The compelling reason for me to move to DD-WRT is that is supports the feature of static DHCP. This means that I can have my network PCs and equipment configured for DHCP and assign the specific IP address in the router. I made this move since the Duet does not support static IP for the controller. It also just makes managing the network much easier. My router is in the basement of a 2 story house. I get great reception throughout the entire house with the power tweaked to 70mw and new higher gain antennas purchased at Radio Shack for ~$8. That made a huge difference. For this reason, using a router with built in antennas isn't really an option for me since I don't want to get involved in having multiple APs throughout the house. Good luck with the WRT54-GL. -- maggior Rich --------- Setup: 2 SB3s, 3 Booms, 1 duet, 1 receiver. SuSE 11.0 Server running SqueezeCenter 7.2.1 (7.3 had dropouts for me) and SqueezeSlave.
