Great Router! Runs DD-WRT Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: 2 USB connectors, good wireless range, 8 MB of flash memory will run the mega build of DD-WRT with room to spare. Very reliable with DD-WRT firmware. VPN up and running for days at a time without a dropped connection. Removable antenna allows for upgrade. Great price.

Its a V2 Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Great for DD-WRT and Tomato, not so great for Openwrt.
It is a really great product for this price.
Cons: It isn't a V1. It has some compatibility issues with Openwrt. It is slower than a V1.
Obviously, it is no N speed nor Gb ethernet.
Limited USB current supply.

Great Router Tech Level: average
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Very nice router. Easy to install dd-wrt on, has two USB ports and a detachable antenna. Best of all, NO FANS: It is totally silent. The orange glow from the status lights shines through the grids at night and looks weird, in a cool sort of way.
Cons: The stock firmware is unpolished and a black case would have been better looking,...

Great Access Point Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Great Wireless Router from ASUS. I configured it with the full version of DD-WRT with no problems and had it up and running in no time. It is so quiet that it is hard to tell that is is on. The 2 USB ports can offer additional storage if you want to connect a USB Flash drive or you can share a USB printer.
Cons: Wish it came it another color....

Great router for DD-WRT Tech Level: high
Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: DD-WRT installs on this router very easily and quickly; just follow the directions on the DD-WRT wiki. Also, as this router has 8 MB of flash memory, you can install the mega version of DD-WRT, and still have some space left. Finally, the two USB ports on this router are useful if you want to attach an external drive or share a USB printer. All in all, a great r...
