AirLive WL-5460AP v2: Almost An Enterprise Access Point

I have two of these at home. They're cheap and sturdy Access Points (APs) that pack many features, most of which I didn't know they existed before poking into them today.

In case you don't believe that these cheap APs are worth it, here are some numbers to shock you: One AP had 78 days of uptime (no restart) and another had 101 days of uptime!
And I say "had" because I updated them with the latest firmware, so they had to be rebooted.

91 images were the total to cover all the features this AP provides! The only downside is that even though the firmware is being updated once in a while, the documentation still refers to the old firmware, so you may have to invest in some trial & error episodes to get things done.

Wireless modes:

• Access Point
• Client: Client-Infrastructure / Client Ad-Hoc
• Bridge
• WDS Repeater

All of these features are slapped into a 2MB firmware image!
