Good day,

I'm battling with my WRT54G v2 since 6 weeks to get it work again. History:

. WhiteRussian 0.9 working well since february, previous versions also
. july 2007: I saw Kamikaze 7.06 and gave it a try. No more wireless. Didn't do anything more, going for holidays
. august 2007, 2 days ago (end of holidays :-(): I saw 7.07 and install it. Wireless came back but unstable:
  - only working few minutes and then very slow, even POP clients can't take mails (Timeout).
  - ping is ok
  - mtr is ok
  - ssh to the WRT54G and then launching top: sometimes immediately, sometimes after 4~5 refresh -> blocked, CTRL/C does nothing
  - http: same, blocked.
  - running down/up iface or renewing IP address make everything working as it should, but the problem will appear again within the same delay
. came back to WR 0.9 and ... still have the same wireless problem

I tested with 3 laptops, I tested those laptops against others WIFI Router: they are ok. Distrib are Debian/SID (ipw3945), Xubuntu 7.04 (ndiswrapper and bcm43xx), Ubuntu 7.04 (ndiswrapper and bcm43xx). Wired connection works perfectly. I removed iptables, WAN port is used as a 5 LAN port.

To summarize: had WR0.9 working smoothly, tested K7.06 (no WIFI) & K7.07 (WIFI unstable), came back to WR0.9 (still unstable WIFI). What can be wrong? Any help or hint greatly appreciated.

Not sure if it's gonna help but my friend had troubles with wifi (didn't wanted to associate any client with AP). After few weeks he found this:

at pt. 2.7 there is a link to the script which helped him to clean NVRAM with a safe way and everything came back to normal.

Here is the link to the script:

I hope it helps,

PS. He had White Russian RC6 on Asus WL-500G Premium

Thanks for the trick. At this moment *without having doing something else* than rebooting few times the WRT54G, 2 of 3 notebooks have the WIFI connection back! I think your manipulation will have good effects as soon as I will launch the script.

Again, many thanks for your help.

No problem,

Good to hear about progress.

Good luck,
