Nope. Well, there is WBMR-HP-G300H but the specs, see DD-WRT Supported Devices & Known incompatible devices.

Generally recommend one of these routers also for VPN, WireGuard: R7800, R7500v2, EA8500, R9000, x86.

Is your ISP cable, DSL, fiber to Ethernet or what? Does their equipment provide NAT, or allow bridge mode?

I have cable internet. Yes, my equipment provides NAT and allows bridge mode. I thought it would be nice to have a combo modem/router instead of one of each.

Please read the forum rules, guidelines, announcements, and stickies throughout. Then read all of the wiki articles. There is even a sticky which *I* posted about this topic in the past couple of months since it's been brought up in one way or another at least 'a dozen times' this year alone. Topic locked with option to remove in the future.
