As more people ask me to update their WRT54GLs I'm getting a handfull of original Hynix RAM chips (the 16MB ones). Are they of any value for the WRT54Gv5 users? Is it possible to use them there? (I s ... |

I got the MT46V32M16-5B chip from a Kingston KVR400X64SC3A/256 SoDIMM DDR module. I believe - any four-chip module will do. If you do not have any industial-grade soldering station - follow [url=htt ... |

Yes, right, on the very first power-up an unmodified NVRAM and MT46V32M16 will give you 32MB only. Editing the NVRAM as shown above and power-cycling the box again will give you the whole 64MB of RAM ... |

Both v1.0 and v1.1 (supposedly - WRT54G v2.0~4.0 too) can be upgraded with the Micron's MT46V32M16 chip. Without any further messing you'll have 32MB. After doing nvram set sdram_init = 0x0113 nvram ... |

I've just soldered the MT46V32M16 and only 32MB are available... Isn't MT46V32M16 a DDR SDRAM chip? Sorry, probably I do not understand your question. My WRT54GL v1.0 works fine with the MT46V32M16 c ... |

Go forth and debrick!! No, I'm not debricking it (yet), I'm going to replace the FLASH chip now. (BTW, the RAM upgrade was half-successfull: from the 64MB expected I see only 32MB available...) |

There are no RH2, RH3, RH4, RH5, RH7, RG1 resistors soldered close to the connector placeholder. Only the RH8 is there (4k7). Do I need to solder them to be able to use JTAG? (WRT54GL v1.0, SN#CL7A0 ... |

I have just replaced the original Hynix HY5DU281622ET-J chip with the Micron's 46V32M16-5B F (the smallest SDRAM I could find).
I expected to be having the full 64MB, but instead I have only half o ... |
