Who Has A Linksys Wag54v3

[Petch01]

10 months ago I bought a Linksys WAG54V2 ADSL Modem/router (the blue/black thing). Together with my subscription on TOT I got a Dare Global DB120 but I wanted to go wireless. That's why I bought the Linksys.

Recently I bricked the thing. I brought it back to the computer shop but without any hope because warranty is void if you play around with the firmware. So I bought a Linksys WRT54GL router to let it work in combination with my DB120. At this moment the DB120 works as a bridge with the WRT and the WRT has Hyper-WRT Thibor firmware. The combination is great and works excellent for all my needs.

Without any expectation, as told, just ago the computer shop gave me a free replacement for my bricked WAG54GV2. Without box, charger or manual though. It is a Linksys WAG54V3. There isn't any information available on the internet. Nobody on the specialist board linksysinfo.org knows about this type too. It seems to be a type for the Thai market only. Then again, why does it seem that you can't buy it.

It works excellent. It has a much more advanced firmware and it doesn't become that hot compared with the V2. The case looks like a WAG354G but there is a removable antenna on it (RP-SMA). Also an advantage. There's no WPA2, though.

Just curious. Does anybody has a V3? What's your experience?

I use it and honestly, it's better than the standard-issue modem that comes with True.

Excellent signal all around the house and even outside. 30k higher download speed when using the ethernet port. Very reliable and easy to configure.

Can you tell us the name and location of the shop? I'm in the market for a new wireless router and I would like to give the shop (you mentioned) my business.
