so you plug in ethernet cables and it'll send the packages over wireless to the RT-N16.
I noticed:
- the connection is always alive, under the -d firmware it would stop working sometimes.
- Better sensitivity of the network
- Higher throughput

so yeah, you could say so
wow.. I thought broadcom driver is not compatible with 2.6 kernel but this means it is? Does moving to this firmware from the regular 2.4 based images released over at http://code.google.com/p/wl500g have any impact on apps that are installed or is it a straight upgrade? (I currently have wl500g-1.9.2.7-d-r1825 on my wl-500w)
