I'm a pretty new owner of this router, but after trying the stock firmware (very briefly), then DD-WRT (not official), then Buffalo official DDwrt, then back to DDWRT not official, I'm not sure WHAT to think anymore.
I have been unable to plug a USB stick into the back of this router and get it to be seen as a drive in Windows XP with ANY of the firmwares. Right now (with DDWRT Unofficial) I am sitting here and watching my wifi signal vary between 3 and 5 on my laptop without moving anywhere.
I'm now thining about going back to 1.74 (ugly), but am afraid I'll brick this thing if I don't do it right. Should I go from DDWRT unofficial back to the stock buffalo f/w that came with the unit and then upgrade to 1.74?
I really like this router..when the signal is good, it's quite good even on g54 machines. I've been reading this forum, and am seeing so much disparity, that I don't know what to think.
So, any recommendations of what to do (and how to do it) from anyone?
Thanks.
