Hi Everyone,

LinkSys WRT54 Routers

Purchased this one, not sure what dd-wrt is, though

Linksys WRT54G v2.2 Wireless Router with dd-wrt

looking to get this one, seems like it should work on Mesh, I hope!

Linksys WRT54GS v4 Wireless Router

Any opinions appreciated......

Either or both will work on HSMM-MESH. Installation instructions are here someplace for the one that still has factory firmware. DD-WRT is a versatile firmware replacement (more versatile than OpenWRT) with which someone has replaced the lame factory firmware. On that one, do a reset (hold reset button 10 seconds with power on); connect it to your PC and power the PC off/on to obtain an IP address from the router (there are other ways to do that, but power-cycling is easy); then bring up your net browser and type in HTTP://192.168.1.1 and bingo! you're into DD-WRT and can use its interface (ADMIN>FIRMWARE>BROWSE) to select and upload the HSMM-MESH firmware which you previously downloaded from this web site. After it starts the upload, go away and touch nothing for at least three minutes. Go have some pizza and root beer. Then turn the PC off and on again and follow the instructions elsewhere on this site.

Thanks Carl, I will check them out and look in the FAQs, then work on getting them going. Trying to create some local interest, here. 73, Jack. VK4JRC
