Hi guys,
Has anyone here tried using the DD-WRT software on any of their wireless routers? It looks very interesting and I am really intruiged by the idea.
For those who don't know, DD-WRT is a firmware update based on Linux and available for free under the GPL that you can use to replace the firmware on supported wireless routers. Supposedly it offers some great enhancements over the standard firmware offered by the vendors.
I was just wondering if anyone had used it and what they thought about it. I've been considering buying a test router to try it out, but I don't want to waste my money if people have tried it and think it's worthless.
