Due to it&#8217;s popularity this venerable wireless router has been documented across the Internet on how to software and hardware hack it. Tinkering with this devices is a great way to learn about embedded Linux, cross-compilation, soldering, and serial communication. I continue to search for new ways to play with this router (I plan on adding some USB ports once my 12v\/5v power supply arrives!). \u00a0The reason I&#8217;m documenting my experiences is because I haven&#8217;t seen many tutorials where the device has a GPS module. I&#8217;ve seen some documentation on connecting a GPS device (Garmin) to a serial port. Mine goes the extra step and includes a module in the router for a nice compact wardriving box. I&#8217;m even able to set the date and time on the device after a GPS lock is obtained. \u00a0So I&#8217;m going to put together a tutorial on the GPS module and the version of Openwrt, Kismet, and GPSd I used to allow this device to be a self contained wardriving box.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well the WRT54GL is not dead for me.
