DD-WRT & Tomato WRT on Buffalo WHR-G54S

Factory firmware does not work quit well, network slows down significantly once someone starts torrent download, and connection is unstable while using encryption.

Flashed ddwrt firmware, succeeded with v23sp2 mini. Standard version always fail, luckily didn't brick the router. So far so good. The router seems able to dynamically adjust the output power depending on the activity.

Update: Network still isn't perfect, even after QoS was setup. With five people sharing, connection would randomly lost, need to reboot almost every day.

Loaded TomatoWRT, QoS function much better, and no odd disconnections, everyone happy now.
