I am a proud new owner of a WRT54G v3.1 :cheering: Thanks to this FatWallet thread. After looking at the conversion chart on this page, I don't see much of a difference between v3 and v3.1, the only thing that changed between these is the RAM Device v3 = Hynix 1x HY5DU281622ET v3.1 = Hynix 1x 504AA HY5DU281622ET-J So is this the only difference ? My second question is, is this the best version to get? I might bring this back to staples and see if they have v4 or another version that is better then my v3.1... My main goal is to provide a more secure network, w/ the ability to use VNC and possibly VPN. Any suggestions? p.s. Sorry for the questions I am a Linksys Newb, and I am converting from Netgear POS router (WGR614). Thanks in advance for any help. -BassKozz
Update Question... I just read a post from the Fatwallet Thread. alex50 said: Is this true ? I don't have FIOS yet, but as soon as it comes to my area, I plan on jumping on the bandwagon... should I return to staples and look for a v4 ? Thanks again in advance, -BassKozz
The HyperWRT forums are a good source for real details between the versions. The FatWallet post doesn't give version numbers of firmware and other essential information... I suspect firmware has more to do with the speed difference than hardware. What changed in the hardware to account for this?
