My WRT54G2 router isn't routing anymore. For the past several days it worked erratically, now not at all. (Plugging my Ethernet directly into the cable modem gives me internet, but nobody else in the house gets it without the router.)

The green power light on the router is blinking, rather than on steadily. I power cycled the router, I pressed and held the re-set button for 30 seconds, and I tried a different wall-wart power supply, all with no change in behavior.

Has my WRT54G2 gone tits-up for good this time? Is it now time to install my new (spare) WRT54G that has been sitting on my shelf for about two years?

Or is there some magical revival trick that will bring my 'G2 router back to life?

OK, in the time it took to type the above post, the router started working again. I suspect it is a temporary condition [working] and it will stop by the time I finish this edit...
