Ok I got it flashed and am in the control panel, whats the default pass so I can change things? And thanks for all the help  .
Edit: Figured it out and so far im loving dd-wrt, the gui and everything, all the features, its amazing. I think the buffalo whr-g54s is going to become very popular as people are no longer able to find linksys with the right version.

yeah i can bet that.. it is really hard to find any of the older linksys versions because Linksys put on a promo to move them off the shelves..  However, I got my in dec at walmart.  I was there yesterday and there were about 10 or so left and the rest were the newer ones that can not be used... 

Glad you are enjoying it!   There is tons there for you to mess around with believe me..

Can't wait to test out the wireless performance. How much would you recommend increasing the xmit power, or what not to go above?

I've got the router working great, wireless is good with the downstairs pc but I can't get the adapter I purchased with the router working. I thought it might've been because I was installing it in a server 2003 pc so I wiped out the hardrive and install xp. Still doesnt work, I seem to get the driver installed and everything but then everytime I get a code 10 device cannot start. Anything else I should try before I return it , it was 39.99, for that much I could've gotten two 125Mbps adapters.

umm... one thing that I noticed.. was that mac filtering was hit or miss..

make sure that you install the software before installing the card.. this sometime will cause stuff like this to happen.. if it does uninstall the device from device manager.. than install the software and drivers.

Well this is just a home network so security isn't too important, I figure just enabling wep will deter most.
