tl;dr how can I request that ethtool be added to the DD-WRT image?

I'm trying to debug a packet dropping problem. Many posts around the Internet use ethtool to help diagnose root causes. My DD-WRT, version DD-WRT v3.0-r50906 std (11/18/22) , does not have ethtool available.

How can I create a formal feature request to add ethtool? Is there a different DD-WRT website or email list for such a request?

Would help to know which router so it can be determined if it will fit or not.
