Any hope for a linksys wrt54gs v5.1?

Hi

I wanted to try out openwrt on a linksys wrt54gs, but the version I have isn't listed on the wrt54g page, and wikipedia shows it lacks much ram and flash. However, it suggests that vxworks could be used on 5.0.

https://openwrt.org/toh/linksys/wrt54g

Is there any hope for this?

Always check the Table of Hardware.

Version 5 is not listed, therefore it's not supported.

Also see this, as you will definitely need more flash and RAM to have a good experience: https://openwrt.org/supported_devices/432_warning

Likely not. The 4/32 warning is also why the developers don't dedicate resources to those devices.

Also see this regarding devices using Broadcom chipsets: https://openwrt.org/meta/infobox/broadcom_wifi

It has 2/16 memory. That is way too small.
