In case you were wondering, no the Linksys WSB24 antenna booster will not work with your WRT54G Router. I couldn't find it definitively stated anywhere (other than that it's not approved by the FCC), so I thought I'd try it (I don't need no stinkin' FCC approval :-)). It just plain doesn't work. Signal goes almost to zero. Don't even bother trying it.
Now I've got a decision to make:
- Sell the WRT54G and revert to boosted 802.11b
- Sell the WSB24 and try a wireless bridge to extend access
- Sell the WSB24 and just live with semi-sweet coverage
