Hi there!
I have a few things that i have wondered about.

1.
I have an ASUS WL-500W as a bridge client connected to my DIR-655 router but when i check the signal quality on the ASUS it only says 50%. The routers are like two meters apart with no obsticles in betwen. I have the ASUS flashed with 14438 NEWD2_std-nokaid firmware. When i check the signal on the DIR router it says 90%. Why is it so low on the ASUS?

2.
Is there a complete manual available for all the settings with the wrt firmware?
For example if i go to the wireless settings theres an option between "bridged" or "unbridged" and i have no clue what to choose here? What is the difference?


many thanks

For this i would start with the annoucements at the top of the broadcom forum, namely The Firmware Recommendations and Peacock FAQ, most of the info you seek is within the dd-wrt wiki and google or bing. Also for optimal signal quality, router placement and antenna alignment are crucial for this.
