I have a WRT54G v8 that I've had for years that I am using as a WAP for my home. It's fairly stable as it is with the signal strength pretty strong throughout the house. I have to restart it occasionally but it's pretty stable for the most part.
Would I see any improvements if I load DD-WRT or Tomato onto it and configured it back to a WAP? I have never flashed the firmware on a router before but from my understanding it's pretty easy. I also don't care if the thing bricks as it's very old and it would just encourage me to upgrade.
Thanks for the input!
If it means anything, I only have a few devices using the signal. A smartphone and a few laptops is all.
