-As of April 3, 2006, there is a "Micro" version of DD-WRT that fits onto a version 5 of the WRT54G or WRT54GS. The process to get the firmware onto the version 5 is complicated, however. Mainly, it involves using a [JTAG cable].+{{languages|Flash your WRT54G or WRT54GS v5 series (v5, v5.1, v6)}}

[edit] For the WRT54GS v5, v5.1 and v6 ONLY

SERIOUS WARNING -- NO REVERSION TO VXWORKS ON THESE UNITS: At the moment for WRT54GS units this is a one way operation. No reversion back to VxWorks is available. I never got around to creating the GS reversion firmware. It could EASILY be created by someone using the tools I've written and the documentation here. A person once sent me a GS router hoping I might, but I didn't get to it and now no longer have that router. If someone would like to send me another GS unit, I will maybe get around to creating the reversion firmware. Also, if you'd like to donate other routers, feel free. Note that I make absolutely no guarantees that I'll complete anything though.
