Just wondering if anyone has used one of these model routers.    I have the opportunity to buy three of them but I want to be sure first.


Thanks!!!

Well to answer my own question, I read on wikipedia that the WRT54GTM is the same as a WRT54GS v3. So yea it will work and it has the higher ram capacity. So I bought 3 of em. Nodes 2-4 will be on the air soon.

Just flashed a WRT54G-TM and it's now working perfectly. Maybe I went the long way around the barn, but here's how I went from the stock -TM firmware to the HSMM-MESH firmware...

I first followed the instructions found here to load DD-WRT...

http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=212455#212455

Once that was done, I used the built-in flash utility found in DD-WRT to load the HSMM-MESH firmware using the binary for a WRT54GS.

It works great. Once flashed, it looks, feels, and acts just like any WRT54GS v3.

I recently got a WRT54GTM and tried many different variations/methods of installing the HSMM-MESH firmware. I echo KD7MG and say the method mentioned above is (right now) the only way to get it to work on this particular router.

I messed up a couple of times and bricked the router.  I found that only way to recover (without JTAGing it) is to follow the instructions on dd-wrt with respect to going back to the stock Linksys firmware and trying again from step 1.

EDIT:  Make sure you select "reset to default settings" on the router before upgrading from dd-wrt otherwise you will have missing information on your HSMM-MESH node.
