The whole support incident was very straight forward for my WAG54G v1.2 - I told them it overheats when the ambient temp reaches 35C, and they offered me a replacement, simple as that. I wonder if the same (no questions asked) policy applies to the WAG54G V2.0 as well? I have a friend who has one and wouldn't mind a free upgrade:) Anyone know?

Linksys WAG354G Router Security
Change Linksys WAG354G Default Wifi Name (SSID)
Rename your Linksys WAG354G Default Wifi Name (SSID). Some Linksys routers come with default network names (with the name of the manufacturer). We recommend to use a different name because a default name unnecessarily identifies the make of your router, making it easier for attackers to break in.
Change Linksys WAG354G Default Password
It’s easy for a hacker to find out the manufacturer’s default password for your Linksys WAG354G router and then use that password to access your wireless network. So it’s wise to change the administrator password for your Linksys WAG354G router. When you’re deciding on your new password, try to pick a complex series of numbers and letters and try to avoid using a password that can be guessed easily.

MAC filtering allows you to limit access to your Linksys WAG354G router. To enable this feature, enter into your Linksys WAG354G router the 12-character MAC ID of each computer that will connect to your network. Be sure to update this information if you add or remove devices.
Disabling Broadcast SSID for Linksys WAG354G router
Linksys WAG354G router transmits your Wi-Fi network ID (the so-called SSID) to everyone. This may be changed at will by unchecking the corresponding box in the settings.

Where are you placing the Linksys WAG354G router in the house?
You wouldn’t think about this at first, but where you place your Linksys WAG354G also has a bearing on your security.
Place the Linksys WAG354G router as close as possible to the middle of your house. The first benefit is that all the rooms in your house have the same access to the Internet. The second benefit is that you don’t want to have your wireless signal range reach too much outside your house, where it can be easily intercepted by cybercriminals.
For this reason, don’t place your Linksys WAG354G router next to a window, since there’s nothing to obstruct the signal going outside your house.
Dear friendsI want to know what chances are that your firmware will work on this router. According to OPENWRT this router is based on
Platform: TI AR7WRD
SoC: TNETD7300AGDW
Processor: MIPS 4KEc V4.8 @ 210 MHz
4 port switch: Infineon ADM6996LC
Integrated on motherboard Wireless chipset: TI TNETW1350A
It is single file firmware based on PSPBOOT.
http://wiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs/Har ... ys/WAG354G
Comparing its specification and yours, it seems that it has everything you support except 4 port switch.
My question is: Will it work or maybe you will be able to make a version for this router???
Thanx for good work
