What's a good router-Bricked my new WRT54GL

Can you recommend one that doesn't have this issue?

I will send mine back :-) I tried the recovery with no luck.

Edit:

I actually recovered it with a auto firmware tool and successfully installed

DD-WRT !!! WOOOO HOOO

What are the optimum settings for this?

thanks

Edit:

Do you know anything about this?

Special note for users with Linksys WRT54G/GL/GS routers, there are severe problems with them when running any P2P app (read for fix)

I'm not quite sure how to adjust the settings?

Do I only need to change the TCP Timeout from

3600 to 300?

Mine are set to default like this:

(Default: 4096, Range: 256 - 4096)

TCP Timeout (in seconds)

(Default: 3600, Range: 1 - 86400)

UDP Timeout (in seconds)

(Default: 120, Range: 1 - 86400)

They say to do this:

* The following instructions are for DD-WRT v23 or later only.

* Enter the following values at 'Web-Admin -> Administration -> Management -> IP Filter Settings'

* Maximum Ports: 4096

* TCP Timeout (s): 300 (decrease if you have many TCP connections)

* UDP Timeout (s): 300 (decrease if you have many UDP connections)

* Save Settings and then Reboot Router

thanks
