Basic WRT54GL 3rd Party Firmware Upgrade

first step is login to your WRT54GL using your favourite browser, I'm using Mozilla Firefox, to http://192.168.1.1. Then you'll be prompted with the default Linksys authentication (username: and password: admin)

then you will get the following page, which is Linksys WRT54GL default administration page,


to upload and upgrade using third part firmware, in this case we gonna use dd-wrt firmware, please navigate your mouse to menu: Administration>Firmware upgradethen click browse button and point to the firmware file, in my case i'm using dd-wrt.v24_generic_nokaid.binand then hit open to submit the file, youl'll be directed to the last page that point to the file. To perform the upgrade process, click upgrade button and you'll see the progress bar.Just wait untill the process is done, then you'll be prompted by the newWRT54GL administration control panel.

Congratulation!
