    HOWTO: Use Linksys WRT54G as a wireless ethernet bridge

    Cool. I went back and changed all my DNSs to 0 and my DMZ/port forwarding issues have been fixed. Ditto to the simplicity of this procedure. What a fine alternative to any usb/console/bridge adaptor.

    Oh wait I think I've solved my own problem... For some reason the WRT had 192.168.0.105 as DNS. After changing the value to 192.168.0.1 it appears to be working. Thanks Skyking, and thanks once again to user1234. Finally, is there anyway to find out what kind of signal strength the WRT is...

    Hi, I am planning on adding a 1 GB chip onto an ABIT BE7-R(intel 845PE chipset?). This MB has two banks for RAM, but has three slots. Currently, I have a 512 MB stick of DDR PC2700 Kingston Valueram installed. I believe it is double sided? Will I be able to add and use a stick of generic...
