Hello!

I recently installed dd-wrt to an EX6200. As I can understand the latest build doens;t support usb with ext2,3,4 file system (kernel modules missing).

Is there a build that includes support for those file systems? Is the small amount (8 Mbyte) of flash memory even allow it as a feature?

Firmware Version: DD-WRT v3.0-r62036 mini (08/08/25)
Kernel Version: Linux 4.4.302-rt232-st63 #14125 SMP Fri Aug 8 07:31:46 +07 2025 armv7l

Hardware Details:
• Router Model: Netgear EX6200
• CPU Model: Broadcom BCM4708
• CPU Cores: 2
• CPU Features: EDSP FASTMULT HALF TLS
• CPU Clock: 800 MHz
• Memory: 131072 KiB (128MB)

I run an ex6200 also, converted to an actual router now with DDWRT firmware. Why do you need the ext file system on a usb? Will the fat32 file system or NTFS work instead? What are you storing on the USB to use on the network or on the router?

To be able to install extra software packets to the usb from the repositories.

I'm not immediately seeing anything glaring that says ext* filesystems are not supported for this device (ext4 module with backwards compatibility support seems included):
