Also the WRT54GL is not as well-supported as it used to be. OpenWRT
has effectively dropped support for it. We still use them as access
points for now, but I do not think we will be buying more. Sadly, I
think we have gone proprietary: we now buy Mikrotik routers, which are
highly configurable and pretty cheap.
