How to enable SSHd on LinkSys wrt54gl

LinkSys wrt54gl Router provides few ways how to setup and administrate it.

- web interface (http://your-router-ip)

- telnet (Run > CMD > telnet your-route-ip > root > root_pass)

- ssh (by default this feature is disabled)

So to enable this feature download DD-WRT firmware be sure that you download Standard Generic firmware.

After that install it (from web interface Administration > Firmware Upgrade)

!!!!NOTE Please make back up of your curent configuration and backup of you previous firmware!!!!!

After successful installation go to Services > services and enable SSHd

Now you will be able to connect to router via ssh
