third party firmware

Try Linksys for firmware.

Got get the tftp program at ftp.linksys.com/pub/network/tftp.exe You can use it to flash a different firmware (original or otherwise). Have you tried to reset the router (push the reset button in back with a paperclip or I use the point of a mechanical pencil)? Which version of the WRT54G do you have? I've had good luck with the firmware available at

Yes, I have used the tftp and held the reset for a minute or two. It will not reset to the original or anything.

OK. I assume you're connected directly to the device via RJ45 and that you have your computer set to an IP in the same subnet (eg 192.168.1.x). Power down the device and be ready with the TFTP program. Power up the device and immediately attempt to TFTP the firmware.

Your question is so general as to indicate that you have no idea what you are doing.

You need to figure out which 3rd party firmware you're using, go to the site, determine which version works with your router. Which version of the wrt54g do you have?

Then ask the people that work with that firmware on that forum, why release xxx.xxx won't install on wrt54g version X, even though you did X.

Yes, DD-WRT is recommended. You should read up on what you are doing and hope you didn't brick your router by doing it the "easy" way !
