Is there any modern FOSS firmware for Linksys WRT54G routers? Is it possible for me to compile the latest version of OpenWRT for a WRT54G router with 4 MB of flash and 16 MB of RAM?

I have a few different Linksys WRT54G routers and I’ve installed DD-WRT - build number 44715 - on them. However, this build appears to have been made in 2020. So, I was wondering if there’s a more modern version of dd-wrt for this router. If not, is it possible for me to compile the latest version of OpenWRT for these routers which have 4 MB of flash and 16 MB of RAM?

Crazy and I thought 2GB RAM in a Turris Omnia are low XD

Good luck!

Unfortunately no, not for a serious use case. Not only the RAM & storage, the CPU & networking chipset themselves are insufficient for modern security, not with reasonable performance, at least.

I assume you’ve already checked your model on the Supported Devices table?

There are so many variations of the WRT54G that it may be difficult for someone to answer the question.

FreshTomato still supports these devices.
