Hello, Have you tried taking a router from merlin to dd-wrt? I've got my Asus RT-N66u whichis rev b1. It was running stock, then I took it to merlin, not an issue. Unfortunately, merlin though it works, does not have two capabilities I am looking for, one being captive portal. I'm going to have to go dd-wrt. I was wondering if you've tried a merlin to dd-wrt migration? The docs on the router say only tomato to dd-wrt not merlin. I'm hoping I can just flash the .trx file of dd-wrt. Any impressions?

Hi,
I am using a ddwrt router from buffalo but sense they do not release any stable versions anymore you are stuck using the dev builds and hope for good luck. I have had a pretty good experience doing it this way.

Hello,
Does anyone have experiences with alternative router firmwares? I've got an Asus RT-N66U and am wanting to put something other than stock or as it stands now the merlin firmware on it. I'm not liking the accessibility.
OpenWRT had me until I saw that it's 2.4ghz was weak and 5ghz was unrecognized, for me that kind of defeats the purpose.
I suppose my choices are down to Tomato USB or DD-WRT, both of which are supported by my device, but the DD-WRT installation fills me with apprehension.
If anyone has experience with either Tomato USB or dd-wrt or has another suggestion please let me know.
Thanks. Dave.
