these next-gen broadcom chipsets are likely to appear in devices from most manufacturers soon. third-party firmware support would be fantastic.
edit - not true. EA9300 has quad-core bcm4908
Big problem for me. Has the Linksys name on it. After fighting with wrt3200 for almost 2 years and still crap, I would not think of purchasing a Linksys product no matter the glowing reviews.
Replaced the wrt3200 with a Netgear r8000 running Kong's latest. Must better experience.

Worst 2 minutes ever.
The VPN stability is way better after flashing latest firmware. Still not configurable anyhow through the webGUI but probably using some terminal-client through SSH is the way to go for now!!
This thing is a nightmare for me. Constant disconnects. The router would lockup anytime I tried to configure the router and save the settings. It would vanish from the network and I could not login to it. I tend to think it is buggy firmwares. Maybe dd-wrt could cure this.
You can for sure....by giving a donation to Brainslayer or Kong.$$$
They surely need money for buying a device to build DD-WRT on.
I'm sure it's very easy to give them donations through this forum.
Damn Netgear for not supplying either of those Magic developers!!!!
