I am new to this and need some help. I installed the dd-wrt on my linksys wrt54g v.5 and it worked perfectly but when I try to use my laptop which has a wireless-b 802.11b card in it, it says the connection is very good and when I check the wireless network it shows a very strong signal. When I try to go on the Internet I can't make a connection even though it says I have a good network connection. The dd-wrt works great on the main computer. What am I doing wrong or missing on my laptop to make my wireless work. Any help would be greatly appreaciated. Thanks, Redbudian1

Hi.Thanks for the help but I finally figured it out. The problem was in the security settings. Once I set the right security my laptop wireless picked it right up. Everything works great. Thanks
