Scott Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 If I could be sure I would get a version 4, I would be all over this. Still a good deal on this great router. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cthulhu Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Yea, I remember people talking about it being hackable. Let me be stupid for a minute. What kinds of hacks are possilbe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrn8 Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 The main reason the hackable ones are nice is that you can increase the antenna strength. I've gone from 2 to one WRT54G in my office building because of using the HyperWRT software and increasing the antenna signal strenght. Linksys has the antenna set at something like 25% of their capability with their software and you can't change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cthulhu Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Ahhh, now that makes sense. That is a really good hack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
