Re: Yep

Actually, no they are not. I have a v3 (the best from what I've gathered, with the faster processor and more memory) along with its box and nowhere on the box does it reference a version number. The only way to tell is with the first few characters of the serial number (in my case, CGN5 corresponds to a version 3 of the WRT54GS). Somebody already posted the serial number list below.

There is any easier way! On every box, the version of the device is printed in plain English stating V1, V2, V3, and so on.

Radio shacks are still carrying V2 and V3, right along side the V5. Fortunately you don't even have to look at the serial to figure out if it's one of the older, and thus better models. Just avoid anything with the "Setup" button in place of the normal Linksys logo.
