The sveasoft firmware is the best thing to hit linksys routers I've

week, and I've been running it on various linksys routers in my purvey
for some time now.

I was using EWRTv0.2 for some endusers (I'm saving the fun of OpenWRT
for myself and my next WRT54G/GS for later) but the EWRTv0.3beta lacks
non-CLI WDS and "client" mode (which was in v0.2) for the wireless
radio. It appears that this Freeman Basic/The "Individual" method may
work fine in setting up a WDS config and/or a "client" wireless bridge
that will also accept connections as a WAP while bridging...

I'm looking around the different options and how a 3rd party firmware
with a GUI interface like the original Linksys might work for someone
who will eventually need to be told to do this or that in a non-CLI manner.

TIA for any tips,
RBW

Is that the pay (the bastards) $20 method or the do you use one of the offerings from this "Individual" person and could you post back the file name of a recent firmware you've had success with?

Sorry to mention the GPL warfare but it does cloud the process of making a proper useful decision.

This 3rd party firmware worked...

Following this procedure (with appropriate modifications for the particular circumstances)...

So I have an older WRT54Gv2 hardware running an older different 3rd party firmware (WDS capable) connected via cat5 on the WAN side to the DSL modem and I have a WRT54Gv3 hardware running DD-WRT and connecting to the first unit on the LAN side wirelessly while also accepting connections from the wireless card on the laptop.

This is good because previously I had a very old wireless AP/switch connected via cat5 to a wireless bridge connecting to the first WRT54Gv2 unit to reach all parts of the lot. Now the bridge is not necessary with WDS working.
