This study centers on the modification of Linksys WRT54G router to create customizable platform for digital applications. As proof that the router has been successfully modified ? firmware and hardware ? features like button pressing, input interrupts, URL parameters and an application called “Linksys router navigater” were created. Button pressing simply outputs what the client wants to output to the LEDs. Input interrupts outputs what the client defines as output according to the input and URL parameters lets the client output the desired predefined function. The application Linksys router navigator on the other hand, moves forward, backward, left and right, depending on the button that the client press. Linksys router navigator is like a car that can be controlled not via RC frequencies but via Wi-Fi.
