WRT120N 3rd Party Firmware?

Q. I was looking into Tomato and all the other 3rd party firmwares, but I have found NONE that supported the Linksys WRT120N model. Are there any? I hate the standard firmware it uses. Anyone have ANY ideas? Thanks.

A. No FOSS software for that model


Wireless Internet Problem!?
Q. I have a Dell Studio 17 laptop running 32bit Vista, and I am having a problem connecting my Dell Wireless WLAN card to my Linksys WRT120N wireless router with latest firmware. I can connect to the internet just fine downstairs next to the router, but as I go upstairs, the connection switches to "Local only."

A. I had the same problem and had to switch to a Netgear wireless router.


How do I connect a Linksys router to a Belkin router as an access point?
Q. Okay, I have two routers. One is a Linksys WRT120N (I also have a WRT54G2 V1 if the current isn't compatible...) and I also have a Belkin F5D7230-4 router. The Linksys is connected to my cable modem and has good enough signal for all of my downstairs, but my upstairs has little to no connection in certain places (MY ROOM for example!!) so I'd like to configure the Belkin router to be used as an access point or repeater. Keep in mind that there is no wired connection in my upstairs so I need to configure it as a repeater that won't be hardwired to the original router. I'm willing to update to 3rd party firmware or anything if need be. I don't care if it's something that will potentially brick my router or void the warranty, if it will work...please help me do it! I've read everywhere that it's supposed to be this oh-so-easy task...but uhh...I'm not having very much luck!

Help with wireless network problem please!?
Q. I have a Linksys WRT120N wireless router that i use to connect a netbook and Wii to the internet. I can get them connected and working fine for a while. Eventually, neither will be able to connect to the network though. They still recognize the network, they just can't connect. If i restart the router, then it works fine again. I dont want to have to keep restarting the router every day though. Please help troubleshoot this problem. I went to the cisco site and they told me to update the firmware and change the router's channels, but it continues to do the same thing.
I hope the router isnt dying, it is brand new.
Yes, i updated the firmware and tried all 3 of those channels. They will not connect to the network at all. I have to restart the router to fix it, it doesnt go away on its own. There are no other networks in range and no cordless phones. I am not sure if the devices are N or G adapters.
