I had the DD-WRT, before I threw it away. This router is absolute crap. Don't get it. I repeat in the strongest possible terms: DON'T GET IT!

I'm using dd-wrt.v24-18946_NEWD-2_K2.6_big It's Eko's Big build for this router. Works like a champ!

I think you're referring to the hardware version, not the firmware version. Seems like luck of the draw when you order. I purchased one of these around october 2013 and received a hardware v1 model. Just purchased a 2nd for another location and it is v2.

You may bet that this is a 5.x or later version which runs that slimmed down Vxworks firmware. For the real thing (which once built WRT54G's reputation as a reliable product) look for a WRT54GL (L as in Linux). And look for DD-WRT firmware for your WRT54GL ( http://dd-wrt.com ). That combo really rocks.

DDWRT is a linux router firmware that supports most routers. Whats awesome about it is that it will make ANY router supported by it as a relay station for another router. No cabling required. http://www.dd-wrt.com You'll have to make sure your routers are listed as supported though if you are looking to buy new devices.

Community is working on OpenWRT for Linksys WRT1900AC @ https://github.com/Chadster766/McWRTIn fact, you can run OpenWRT right now. :) See link above. :DAlso, packages are @ http://www.protechs-online.com/downloads/McWRT/packages/

As JC said there are a lot of variables here. In a general sense mine seemed to handle 5-10 devices fairly well and was probably the best performing home router I owned. Ultimately I switched due to the difficulty of putting this router into bridge mode. It would probably be an awesome router if flashed with DD-WRT, which didn't occur to me at the time.

This router is pretty decent as of version 2. You can tell if it's version 2 by the on/off switch and the label on the bottom of the router that says v2. The USB port is intended for single devices and not a USB hub of any kind. I have had this router for a month and am comfortable with the purchase. Most of the recent comments on Amazon are positive. The older comments are negative and had to do with V1 and older firmware.

Thanks for your reply. I did buy a new wireless router, but I don't know if it supports dd-wrt firmware. I did get the printer working again after talking to the Brother customer service rep. It was an issue with the IP address. Brother has the best support I have ever used. You speak to an English speaking rep. who actually works through the issues with you. they don't just read the text from a notebook. It is refreshing to known a company still values customer service.

With DD-WRT, you have nearly complete control over the capabilities of your router. Any further questions or issues should be referenced at the DD-WRT forums (http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/) or wiki (http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page).

DD-WRT.com shows support for it. I'm gonna install it when I get my router in.

how do you set up dd-wrt to vpn accelerate ? i'm told much depends on the cpu speed of your router, for example , what is the speed of cpu on this router ? looks like tomato might support dual radios, ddwrt does not on my e3200 ......

Yes, under the default DD-WRT firmware you can setup a guest network pretty easily. Their support is pretty good at helping if you need it, although sometimes you get someone who is clueless, so you need to hang-up and call back.

I'm not 100% sure for tomato, but I do know for DD-WRT you would want the 4302 bin for the 8302.(I have the 7301 and 7302, and those are 3301/3302 respectively, the 8301/8302 are actually 4301/4301 units)The stock firmware is junk. the share and sharemax (3302/3301) have gone up a lot in prices since i started buying them. thinking of trying to get some of these to play with :)

FYI to current customers: The current version is V3, and is not supported so far by openWRT/Gargoyle, and probably not DD-WRT.

The stock firmware did have a bridge mode, and if you google "bridge mode on asus rt-n16" the first link shows you how to set it up. However I would firmly recomend DD-WRT if you feel up to the task of installing it.

Amazon sells the 3300 in v2 for the United States. I just purchased one and that's what it is. I upgraded the firmware by downloading it from the Netgear website, and while there I noticed it seems that v1 may be just a router without the DSL modem built in, or it has a DSL modem based on different coding standards than are used in the US.

No. DD-WRT is open-source firmware, and the only routers I know of that come with it pre-installed are a handful of Buffalo Tech routers. According to the DD-WRT web site, the WNDR4000 is compatible with it, though, so you can flash it yourself.
