– Wi-Fi throughput is not as strong as Stock firmware (although you might not notice during daily use) With the current, very stable, version created and maintained by Kong, I’ve only found two weak points: – Scheduling for ethernet and both Wi-Fi bands, – Realtime graphs, monitoring traffic one ach network connection,

– DNSMasq support (advanced DNS and DHCP functions), – VPN support (the Router will setup the VPN connection!), – Fine tuning of your Wi-Fi (channels, signal strength, etc), You can upgrade to any buffalo dd-wrt build or user friendly firmware of your choosing, not sure if it improves signal, mine works fine for me already.DD-WRT, due to it’s open source nature, comes with tons of functions you won’t find on commercial router firmware. Hope that explains a little better for you. With this method, once you have the stock firmware back on there, you can then upgrade to any buffalo firmwares you choose. I know what the default IP is for the community dd-wrt builds is, i'm saying that after you use that file, if successful, the default buffalo access will then be on 192.168.11.1 as with all buffalo firmware's, even buffalo dd-wrt 14998 is on 192.168.11.1 and the firmware version is pretty irrelevant, the point with the file is that its an un-encrpyted firmware that the G300NH will accept once you have flash the community dd-wrt build, that is why you keep getting upgrade failed when trying to revert back now, buffalo encrypts their firmware, so only by using that file or TFTP can you revert back to stock firmware which is a pain in the arse. Will it improve the transmit signal strength? What newer DD-WRT or user friendly I can safely upgrade to? It took 300 secs to update, successfully. The default IP for DD-WRT v24-sp2 (Aug/07/10) std is 192.168.1.1 not 192.168.11.1Īnd could you tell me what version of that original firmware? Having problems with port forwarding?
