The WHR-HP-G54 is the higher power version; go for it if you need greater range. The WHR-125 is newer and I think it's got a speedier processor.

I have both. They're flashed with dd-wrt and have been rock solid (running 24/7 the past year with no crashes). The WHR-HP-G54 is pulling in a signal from 300 feet away and three masonry walls at an oblique angle with 30% signal strength (albeit with the aid of a Hawking signal booster and larger antennas).

Actually, I had the opposite experience when flashing the WHR-HP-125. In the middle of the dd-wrt flash, there was a power cut and I thought for sure I'd bricked it. But I managed to reset and load dd-wrt on it. The WHR-G125 flash went over smooth and easy.
