BatBox installed on Linux Router

August 21, 2004 | Toys and Gadgets | By: Mark VandeWettering

Just an update on the Linksys WRT54GS router that I bought. I’m as yet too chicken to reflash it, but I did install BatBox on my system. It just creates a ramdisk and installs some basic software onto the system, including a simple telnetd so you can log in. If you look at /proc/cpuinfo, you get

system type             : Broadcom BCM947XX
processor               : 0
cpu model               : BCM3302 V0.7
BogoMIPS                : 199.47

tlb_entries             : 32

Nifty!
