==================
Topic Overview:
   So you've heard that these neat little Linksys routers can run
   linux. But you're not entirely sure you want to drop $80-$100 only to
   turn it into a paper weight. Chris's talk will cover the basic steps
   of loading OpenWRT (yet another linux distro) on your LinkSys
  WRT54GS, configuring it, and some of the neat tricks you can
  make it do.

  Open WRT [&lt;<a  rel="nofollow" href="http://www.openwrt.org";>http://www.openwrt.org</a>&gt;]  is a Linux distribution for the
  Linksys  WRT54G. Like every  other distribution these days, it has its
  own boot and package management system. While initially designed
  for the WRT54GS it is now supported on several other home &quot;router&quot;
  devices.

  The LinkSys WRT54GS is a combination 802.11g Access point and home
  internet router. It as 32MB of Ram 8MB of Flash and 5 independently
  addressable ethernet ports.
