i have donated one and waiting on bs to add support for it
I wouldn't hold your breath. This is an Atheros device IIRC. Not too much support by DD-WRT with Atheros chipsets. I'm still hoping for support for my WRT160NL. _________________

Well, I don't think anyone has bothered (including me) to send a WRT160NL to Eko or Brainslayer. I can't afford to anyway but I initially figured that it is a Linux based router like the WRT54GL and that it would gather a decent following from the 3rd party firmware crowd. However, when I made the purchase, I didn't realize it was an Atheros based router. Mine is nicely running OpenWrt at this time but I highly doubt DD-WRT will ever be ported due to the fact there's basically 2 main people doing the developing and maintaining here. So time is the largest factor. Not to mention, OpenWrt develops and releases their firmware more like a full blown Linux distribution and it's completely opensourced where as DD-WRT is not IIRC.
So the long winded answer to your question is, I've been waiting a long time but I have no expectations from Eko or BS and unless someone sends one of them a WRT400N this router will be in the same boat. _________________
