Linksys WRT54GL
January 02, 10 by Daniel Foster
The Linksys WRT54GL router [$49.99] is the device of choice for home networking. Featuring a Wireless-G access point and built-in switch for Ethernet devices, the WRT54GL is well known for its low price and reliability. Besides allowing you to share an Internet connection between multiple computers, it also has a firewall to boost security.
What really sets this wireless router apart from the crowd is its compatibility with dd-wrt, a custom Linux firmware that adds functionality only found in routers five times the price. Some of the advanced features it makes available include overclocking, IPv6, and a number of administrative services.
Even without the dd-wrt upgrade, the WRT54GL Linksys still blows all other routers in its price range out of the water. It’s a great investment for any home or small business.
