DO NOT BUY DEVICES WITH 4MB FLASH / 32MB RAM if you intend to flash an up-to-date and secure OpenWrt version onto it! See 4/32 warning for details. 1) This device does not have sufficient resources (flash and/or RAM) to provide secure and reliable operation. This means that even setting a password or changing simple network settings might not be possible any more, rendering the device effectively useless. See OpenWrt on 4/32 devices what you can do now. 2) OpenWrt support for this device has ended in 2022. 19.07.10 was the last official build for 4/32 devices. The Linksys WAG54G is an ADSL gateway with wireless acccess point integrated.

Inside, note grey side wall is attached to the aerial There is a 3.3v serial header near the front, behind the LED's marked J503 Pinout: [x] (x) (x) (x) Gnd TxD 3.3V RxD Reflashing Attach a serial cable and an ethernet cable to the router, connect both to a PC/Linux box with a tftp server in. Download the generic flash image: http://downloads.openwrt.org/backfire/10.03.1/brcm63xx/openwrt-96348GW-generic-squashfs-cfe.bin Note: you can try later versions, but low RAM size on this device may cause trouble Set the address of the tftp to 192.168.1.100 (static IP), start a terminal on the serial at 115200 8n1 power up the router and hit a key when prompted to interrupt CFE now enter: flashimage openwrt-96348GW-generic-squashfs-cfe.bin to flash the device. On reboot you can now configure your router through LuCi. ToDo There is a JTAG connector next to the serial - pinout unknown. The device has a button marked “Secure Easy Setup” with a LED behind it. This is currently ignored Lack of a FOSS driver prevents the ADSL from being used.
