Which Is Better, Linksys WRT54GS or WRT54GL?

[lettuce]

Am after a new router as my last one, Linksys WRT54G, has a fault where the power led flashes and stops the router from working. So i am looking at either the WRT54GS or WRT54GL, but not 100% sure which is the better router. Was overal impressed with my old Linksys which has the custom Tomato firmware installed but thought the wireless range could have been a bit better. Will either of these 2 routers have better wireless range?

Was looking at the new N range (MIMO), but was under the impression that its not worth it at the moment?? Am using a Nintendo Wii, Laptop (which are both downstairs) and PS3 through Wireless, and Xbox 360 and internet through wired connections if thats of any use

Neither the GS nor GL would have any better range than your G, but all three have detachable antennae, so you could get replacements which would help, and any version which will run custom firmware can have the wireless power turned up beyond the Linksys default as well.
The new G and GS both run VXWorks and have less RAM and flash than the old G and GS versions, and the GL is more or less a v4 G - you'd need a GL to run Tomato (unless they do a cut down version to fit into the new G/GS's reduced memory).

Would the WRT54GR be the best option then as that has rangeboost??
