im not really sure, but wrk54g is not supported by dd-wrt firmware...
so, you got total of 2routers right now, correct?
wrt54g and wrk54g...

which one is working right now...?
which is connected directly to the modem?

wrk54g router uses a Marvel chip, not the Broadcom. To make things worse, there haven't been firmware updates to it for a long while. As if that's not enough, it's being sold in the USA in Office Depot stores as part of a bundle that includes a WiFi PC Card, AND some telcos may be handing them out as part of their DSL service.

It's probably best used with WiFi turned off, because WiFi works best with encryption turned off.
