Kelowna, feel free to come up and park in my driveway or on the side of a really busy hill if you need a 10% connection that bad. The only computer that's always connected to the network is my d/ling / streaming box that I don't really care about anyways haha.

Now that we are on a wireless router topic, I bought wrt54gl months ago, and nowhere in the manual does it allow me to create a username, just password.
Even if router acts as a firewall, can't people still access your computer due to file sharing and peer discovery being enabled, as Soundy stated? (seeing i do not use software firewall)

The firewall will protect you on the internet side of the connection. If someone connects wirelessly to your router, they'll be on the other side of the firewall (your side), and have access to the rest of the computers on your network, provided they aren't protected.

Dunno about tomato fw but linksys doesn't have that option, or similar.
Just wanted to double check.

bringing my old thread back to life.
i finally got a WRT54GL: http://ncix.com/products/?sku=17408&...s&promoid=1081
i've done the basic install. i'm using it attached to a desktop PC and running wireless to an acer 3600 revo upstairs. username/password has been set, and firmware has been updated. i'm getting a 3-bar signal out of 5.
my problem is that i'm getting a very slow internet connection.
dell desktop PC: wired, windows xp
download speed 1.91 Mb/s
upload speed 10.96Mb/s
ping 120ms
acer revo: wireless, windows vista
download speed 0.38Mb/s
upload speed 0.55Mb/s
ping 73ms
what am i doing wrong? 
someone suggested that i have too many firewalls? the router has one, and the wireless computer with vista has a firewall as well... i haven't networked both computers together.
