Hello,

I just picked up an Asus WL-520GU router. I want to try flashing it with Tomato firmware. I have been using google to look for information regarding doing this from a Mac perspective, but I'm mostly finding windows guides.

Does anyone have a Mac link (or other advice).

OS X 10.6.7, Safari 5.0.4 Cable internet

Thanks,
OM

Thank you very much.

Some of the Asus models require the Windows-based firmware utility to get Tomato on there, but once on can be upgraded normally through the web interface.

That was the easiest method to get an RT-N16 going for a client.
