The wrt54gv7 folders are about the WRT54 v7.2, but is there any firmware for the WRT54G v7 that has dd-wrt? Maybe there is a Brainslayer exception somewhere...
Looks like the last successful build for this router was 04-11-2023. The folders are empty for all after that build. Not sure if v7 and v7.2 would be the same either for that matter.

WARNING The WRT54G v7 uses an Atheros AR2317 chip, has 2MB ROM, 8MB RAM and runs VxWorks. It is not supported by DD-WRT as the WRT54G v7 isn't Broadcom based. The WRT54G v7 will probably never be supported
The v7.2 uses Broadcom files from the /broadcom folder after initial flash:
HOWEVER, going by the following, I'd venture to guess the v7 may actually be supported (or WAS, along with the WRK54G), but may require serial flashing**:
* - old links were ftp links which weren't correct, either.
** - I seem to recall BS telling me that the device firmware images were moot or something.
