The first model of Linksys that supported the third part firmware was Linksys WRT54G series router. The Linksys WRT160N/ WRT310N series is the advance version of Linksys WRT54G router. All the non-wired Router like Linksys usually work with DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) to get the IP address for the device like any system or router itself. DHCP helps the user to lessen the work for configuring the network manually that needs to plug in the device to the network and then remove it also.
