nope

flip it over duh

 

[mzkhadir]

what does it say near the serial number ? You might have to turn it on ? or on their website ?

 

[FoBoT]

you will need xray vision or psychic powers with an ethernet adapter

That might make it rather difficult to use the router.

dude...face the fact.

you wanted to take a gamble and try your luck at your local bestbuy to see if you could get a moddable wrt54..but you forgot about that one thing.

just fvking open it, and if it is v4, return it

Look next to the UPC. There will be a serial number.

WRT54G
CDF0 = WRT54G v1.0 / ADM6996L Chipset / CPU 125Mhz
CDF1 = WRT54G v1.0 / ADM6996L Chipset / CPU 125Mhz
CDF2 = WRT54G v1.1 / ADM6996L Chipset / CPU 125Mhz
CDF3 = WRT54G v1.1 / ADM6996L Chipset / CPU 125Mhz
CDF5 = WRT54G v2.0 / ADM6996L Chipset / CPU 200Mhz
CDF7 = WRT54G v2.2 / BCM5325EKQM Chipset / CPU 200Mhz
CDF8 = WRT54G v3.0 / BCM5325EKQM Chipset / CPU 200Mhz
CDF9 = WRT54G v3.1 / BCM5325EKQM Chipset / CPU 200Mhz
CDFA = WRT54G v4.0 / BCM5352E Chipset / CPU 200Mhz

CDFB = WRT54G v5.0 / BCM5352EKPB Chipset / CPU 200Mhz (AVOID THIS ONE)

Take it back - crappy router.

What difference does it make?

i just did that today. found the very last CDFA at bestbuy. didnt get a GS version for some reason.
