Hi, I'm interested in testing out K26 builds on a WRT54GS v.3 which has the same hardware as the 54G-TM unit. I have the original CFE for the TM and wanted to know exactly what I need to modify in order for it to work (just like the modded 54GS v.4 CFE floating around) - I guess it would be the board id, and mac address if I am inclined.
Hey guys, just wondering... In the first post, "Buffalo WHR-HP-G125" is listed as a supported device. Is this a typo? Because I couldn't find such a device.
The reason I ask is because I have a Buffalo WHR-G125, and I am wondering if I could run K26 on my device?
I quote LOM from page 12:
"Buffalo WHR-G125 works when replacing the original cfe with the cfe that Tornado has made for WRT54G v8.
Only the board data from the original cfe has to be moved over to Tornado's cfe."
I am not sure how to do this... Has this issue been fixed since March? If so, I'd appreciate it if anybody could point me in the right direction on which file to install on my router. That is, of course, if I would benefit at all from running K26 on my device (since it is relatively old).

You would not likely benefit from K26 if you don't need anything specifically related to the kernel update already. _________________ Eko Builds

Does anyone know if the bs 14815 k26 will work on the TM? Is it stable or is it an experimental firmware still. This is for a business that does internet sales, it needs to be secure and reliable.
There was one instance about ten pages ago of it bricking and having to have a custom CFE installed on the system to get it to run.
But the main post says that it is natively supported. Could someone please help with the confusion.
The one I am thinking of flashing is dd-wrt.v24-14815_NEWD-2_K2.6_big.bin
Also does anyone know if there is a more advanced firewall package out there that can be installed to the TM, if so how do you go about doing this.

There is no advantage running k26 on a router like a tm and newd-2 drivers on the legacy G routers.
The TM is much more stable & reliable running k24 newd builds.

Is there any point of facts that i need to know switching from the router database version to the Brainslayer version (v24preSP2 build 14311 to bs v24preSP2 r14815)
Also is there anyone that can answer that firewall question it is kinda a big deal.
looks like GS 1.0 is K2.6 supported. i installed openwrt Kernel 2.6 on it. there was only a wifi driver issue. same may count for dd-wrt builds.. _________________ RT-N66U @ Build 25697M K3.10.63
