Hi,

as i can not find any information if this box is supported with dd-wrt i thought i simply ask :)

Unfortunately i can't even find informations on size of ROM/RAM and speeds of that router.

Thanks a million, your help is much appreciated!

I am also interested to know if the NetGear WNR3500 router would be supported/supportable too. It seems to be the successor to the WNR-854T which seems to have received lousy reviews for failing after about a year of service.

Unfortunately, non of the online vendors give the type of hardware detail required on their product descriptions to know if this can work with dd-wrt. It does use Open Source software, so that tells me there is hope it -can- be supported even if it isn't currently.

Thanks for the replies.

I'm starting to look at the Linksys WRT350N more and more.
However, as the unit is sitting on my desk in plain sight, the WNR3500 would be nice, as the Linksys looks absolutely awful.

Any news on the WNR3500 apprecited Smile

Edit: Ahh, its a marvell chipset. Processor is a 81F5180

Any updates on this? The WRN3500 looks good and I want to try it since my WRT54GL stopped working.

I would also love a DD-WRT build for this beast of a router. The initial firmware has a few bugs and internet dropouts that are a nightmare.

This is my secondardy router with a Linksys 600N be my primary and I am a huge fan of DD-WRT even though I have only been using it for about a week. :)

What info is needed to help this move forward?

Any news or update on this one? I recently purchased this model, and am thinking of returning it for one that supports dd-wrt. Yet, I do like this machine, if a update is coming shortly, I can be patient. Smile

Add me to the list of hopeful wnr3500 owners, hoping to get support.
