Extending a wireless access point with DD-WRT
I have had some Netgear WG602 -v4 access points at work for a while.
They seemed to struggle a bit with some XP clients but have been good as gold with Windows 7 clients.
However, I wanted to extend their functionality a little and I used DD-WRT for this. This is a downloadable open source ROM to replace the OS on the access point. I used the V24 SP2 micro build.
Installation can be a little tricky and differs for every device so I will not cover this here.
