Installed the
experimental binary of OpenWRT on my new router today, in particular
openwrt-wrt54g-squashfs.bin. Just used the default firmware's
upgrade feature, from the Administration page. I thought something went
wrong when the progress bar was only about 1/4 of the way across when I got
the page informing me that the upgrade was successful, but after a couple of
minutes I was in. Nice new feature: as soon as you telnet in, it prompts you
(but doesn't force you) to run passwd. As soon as you do -- telnet is
disabled, and you can now get back in with:
$ ssh -l root 192.168.1.1
Big improvement. Good job, guys! I wasn't sure it would run when the model number showed v.3, but I think it's still close enough to 2.2. Anyway, I have to do some more work before I can say how usable it is.
