DD-WRT

AUG

2006

The drop-in replacement for Broadcom-based wireless routers, including the Linksys WRT54GL that I’m using at the lab, replacing the Airport Extreme Base Stations.

Unlike OpenWRT, DD-WRT attempts to mimic the web-based interface of the factory Linksys firmware. Menus are very similar, and exactly the same in some places. DD-WRT just adds a better-looking interface and lots more configuration choices.

Among the things it gives you over the standard firmware are:

A “Control Panel” web page showing clients and signal strength
An SSH interface
Hotspot support, built-in. No need for ZoneCD.
SNMP support
Radio power tweaking
overclocking the Broadcom chipset
Better firewall and VPN software
Samba fileshare mounting
Static DHCP and static routing
