I'm pretty sure I have the same one, generic one available at Home Depot. Works fine for me. Stupid question perhaps, but is your hot water tank plumbed backwards by any chance? As in... the "out" o

There is also the accessory signal booster that attaches to the WRT54G. It looks like another WRT54G but with only a power light. You move the antennas to the new unit and bridge the two with two sm

It should be noted that the reason WEP has been broken is not a brute force attack, it is a "'sploit". Brute forcing a 128 bit key is still extremely extremely unlikely, especially if the informatio

That's true, I guess you'll never have 2^128 possible keys if they all started out from "common phrases", which there aren't 2^128 of... I guess that can be solved by choosing a password with "a lot

Agreed, but who knows what else is in there that won't last 30 years... some glues or something holding it together, some primitive plastic insulators, who knows. Something gets old and cracks, humid
