There aren't easily breakable plastic tabs inside. You could break a piece of plastic as this has happened to me on another router after 9-10 disassemblies but this came as a blessing. This particular WRT54G now opens really easily.

Every subsequent time you open your router will be easier than the previous. After several disassemblies you'll be able to unsnap the pieces by pushing your thumbs apart [Fig 4].

Now that you have removed the face of the housing [Fig 5] take the main body of the router and remove the top. This is done by sliding the cover towards the back connectors.
