[MLB-WIRELESS] WRT54G v5 firmware

[Matt B]

Just managed to get it back, for some reason all the wired network/hub ports
locked up, port lights on solid no matter if there was a cable plugged in or
not and from the laptop end it looked like there was no cable atttached.
Took me a while to realise that the wireless side of the thing was in better
shape and I was able to log in and connect to the admin web page with that
and I just did a factory reset and everything (on first inspection) looks
shiny with dd-wrt now.

Apart from that the only issue I had was figuring out the default username
and password for dd-wrt is root and admin.  Even though the  docs I could
find indicated that  you leave the username box blank. Might have just been
a browser issue.
