Hi Geoffrey, I have WRT54G which was sent to me from the states by my friend.

I have tested the Version 3 of firmware to connect both to cables and ADSL with at least 3 ISP's (total: 6 tests). All the test have been passed. > 2.

Either they are very dumb, or the importer is very smart, because I just bought the same router here in Israel for my friend which had tons of problem with her previous router, and the options that the firmware had, are the EXACT same as my US router, same for the EIRP, and I bought her router from Office Depot In Rishon. > 4. The transformers will be 120 volt. Easier to buy a simple transformer. The cost is small and here it works perfectly well. > If you are running SVEASoft's or another Linux distribution you can get by > number 1, if you know what you are doing, you can get by number 2, but > if a customs agent does not care to listen, you can't convince them. I haven't played yet with SVEASoft's firmware. I need to check if it support UPnP and if it's better in the reception setting compared to Linksys V4 firmware (V3 was a disaster. I had tons of disconnections even when the distance was around 3 meters with s small wall between rooms (the wall have some holes). V4 fixed this issue.
