Linksys WRT54G (v1-4) and WRT54GL
The Linksys Wireless-G Broadband Router is really three devices in one box. First, there's the Wireless Access Point, which lets you connect Wireless-G or Wireless-B devices to the network. There's also a built-in 4-port full-duplex 10/100 Switch to connect your wired-Ethernet devices. Connect four PCs directly, or daisy-chain out to more hubs and switches to create as big a network as you need. Finally, the Router function ties it all together and lets your whole network share a high-speed cable or DSL Internet connection.

The WRT54G (hardware versions 1-4) and WRT54GL are Linux based devices and should not be confused with the WRT54Gv5 which runs VxWare. The firmware for these devices is not compatible and the DDNS clients in each are not the same.
Also, please note that Linksys has rolled the firmware for these devices into a single release which may not be available from the support pages for the WRT54Gv1-4 pages. Instead it may only be available from the WRT54GL page.
