    You may use the G version, but first download you must in recovery mode.

    Not yet (the latest customized version). AFAIK I am still running 1.6.5.3-2 on my WL-500b. The only reason is that I don't want to turn down the router as it works perfectly for 43 days in client mode (and the router even survived 2 half-second power outages).

    Currently I have a WL-500g as well (running 1.7.5.6-2)
