WRT54G here. Mojo - You can upgrade the firmware from a Mac. Through the web interface. I have done it many times...

My vote goes to the Linksys WRT54G. Endless config options, great reception, cheap price, very stable.

You know, it's a funny thing about wireless routers: there are success and horror stories for every brand. I would have been happy to stick with Linksys if it hadn't caused me pro…

I agree that its a shame the OEM's dont sell directly. But they might have some kind of deal going with the likes of Dell , Apple, HP not to compete. It's well known that LG/Philli…
