I found this cool article on the always awesome Lifehacker that shows you how to upgrade the firmware on your Linksys router. I haven’t done it yet but I plan to tomorrow night; should be good times assuming all goes smoothly. Which always happens.

The upgrade modifies your router’s firmware to the open source DD-WRT, which installs to the router’s built-in flash memory. The new firmware does a multitude of things, but all I really wanna do is boost the signal strength so I can take my laptop to Mexico and still get a signal. Like I said, there are tons of other options for the geek-minded to explore as well.
