====== DD-WRT Open Source Router Project ======

[[https://dd-wrt.com/|DD-WRT]] is a really nifty open source project for turning your boring old wireless router into a modern, full featured router. From the DD-WRT web page:

DD-WRT is a Linux based alternative OpenSource firmware suitable for a great variety of WLAN routers and embedded systems. The main emphasis lies on providing the easiest possible handling while at the same time supporting a great number of functionalities within the framework of the respective hardware platform used.

Setup is pretty complicated, though. Here is how I did mine.

  - [[https://dd-wrt.com/support/router-database/|See if your router is supported]]
  - If it is supported see which version of firmware to load.
  - Setup just about always involves first installing a stripped down version of firmware
  - After the stripped down version is running then install the full featured final version
