how to: compile wag354g firmware from sources…
As many of you are asking it, I’ve just written the step by step guide on how to compile sources for wag354g (both v1 and v2).
Please report here your success/insuccess. The guide is available here.

Hi there!
I followed your guide step by step. I successfully managed to make a working firmware from sources.
Thank you.
PS. Is it my idea or the first tar command in your guide needs -z parameter too? I basically used gunzip to get the tar. Also using tar in .bz2 files needs -j parameter or not?
thank you about the tar parameters. I have included them in my guide.
The only thing I cannot understand now is way tar uncompress .gz and .bz2 archived even without specifing those flags…
cheers
Marco, great guide!
I’ve just recently got my hands on a free WAG354Gv2 that was bricked (already own a V1), and managed to unbrick it via TFTP and a standard linksys supplied image, so very excited to see this guide because now I can play with building images without being scared of bricking my one-and-only router.
Marco,
The version of tar (gnu-tar?) included with many linuxes is able to uncompress gzip’ed and bzip2′d tar files… Standard tar doesn’t, and needs the -j/-z options.
Phil: ok, thank you!
