I've never had problems with my WRT54G, but it may be because I don't use it for DHCP. I run a DHCP server on a CentOS box instead of on the WRT54G, because I find it easier to configure. I use it to assign static addresses to my Tivo, to support PXE booting, etc. -- John Abreau / Executive Director, Boston Linux & Unix AIM abreauj / JABBER jabr-iMZfmuK6BGBxLiRVyXs8+g at public.gmane.org / YAHOO abreauj / SKYPE zusa_it_mgr Email jabr-mNDKBlG2WHs at public.gmane.org / WWW http://www.abreau.net / PGP-Key-ID 0xD5C7B5D9 PGP-Key-Fingerprint 72 FB 39 4F 3C 3B D6 5B E0 C8 5A 6E F1 2C BE 99
