Has anybody got a Buffalo WZR-D1800H?
Yes,
The device works great with N-450 since I dont have a AC wifi card for my laptop yet... I am thinking that dd-wrt is working on porting this device as well since its buffalo. So far very impressed just with stock firmware
I have it but am not using it. I checked it out for a half a day and while the hardware is the best, but stock software is really lacking. Missing many basic features that and cheap routers have. I am hoping we can get dd-wrt ported over soon.

mmh. i made a strapped down build now without the buffalo features. plain dd-wrt as known. i will test it now on my devices and upload it to here. i have not tested flashing from stock firmware yet. so consider to know how to use a serial console for recovering if required.
anyway. i will upload it here if done _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking? Sounds like a Mac to me.." - Louis Rossmann https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eL_5YDRWqGE&t=60s
