wyantm06 Posted December 24, 2005 Author CID Share Posted December 24, 2005 what do you mean what am i talking about? the custom firmware option? or the dont get the v5? Well when you said this "Dont get a v5 if u want to" it didn't make sense. I didn't know what you were talking about. I just upgraded to 4.20.7 the latest one. Should I power cycle my modem and router now? Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/9959-linksys-wrt54g-question/#findComment-103467 Share on other sites More sharing options...

richcornucopia Posted December 24, 2005 CID Share Posted December 24, 2005 Are laptop speeds a lot slower than your wired computers? Quote Link to comment https://testmy.net/ipb/topic/9959-linksys-wrt54g-question/#findComment-103519 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyantm06 Posted December 24, 2005 Author CID Share Posted December 24, 2005 Are laptop speeds a lot slower than your wired computers? It's not too bad. Right now I am in my room on my laptop, which is about 15 steps up and my connection says good. But it tends to say low a lot too. That's why I want to figure out how to boost my wireless performance. Any idea how?
