It is a v6 linksys running v24 SP1 and has had nothing but WAN connection issues - everything else works great and plenty of free memory to operate. I've done alot of reading on this issue and it seems to be quite widespread. I think I'm going to do some reading on how to revert back to generic linksys software because it's hardly usable with the DD-WRT firmware on it.

I think I'll stick with the linksys firmware. Thank for the R/D info. Man I’m glad I read these post before I flashed my router!! I think I’ll stick with the linksys firmware.

Please see http://www.bitsum.com/openwiking/owbase/ow.asp?WRT54G5_CFE. Apparently replacing stock firmware with DD-WRT firmware on WRT54GS V5/5.1/6 routers is a one-way street. There is an exception--you can essentially revert your WRT54GS with DD-WRT to a stock WRT54G. k thx bai, Ron John,

Using dd-wrt v23 sp2 on wrt54g v5.0. A lot of disconnectivity and instability. Do you mind telling me how has the router been doing since you reverted it back to linksys firmware?
