Hy everybody i'm a new user and newbie too.

I've an old Asus WL-500G Deluxe, and i would like to install this wonderfull open firmware.
I would like to use this router behind an other router only as like as p2p machine downloader with no other functions.
I've not made any ram expansion.

Which firmware should i have necessary to install ?
Is it compatible with Kamikaze 8.09.1 ?

Please make sure that your existing LAN doesn't overlap with the default OpenWrt LAN IP (192.168.1.0/24).  This is a common source of trouble when chaining routers.

Hope this helps,
