My old linksys wrtg54 with dd-wrt locks up. I am looking for suggestions for a new router that will accept open source router firmware?
My understanding is that, as a brand, TP-Link has been the least obstructive and makes pretty good products at a reasonable price: Canada Computers carries a number of them. I own (among other old WAPs) a TP-Link MR-3020, which has worked fine - but it's not a home router, it's a lightweight thing for Pirate Boxes or single user connections.
TP-Link seconded: I just picked up a TP-Link AC-1750 (be sure to get v2 -- v1 will not work with ath10k). I'm planning to use it as a dev platform for some wireless stuff. So far everything is working fine with OpenWRT out of the box, and I had no trouble compiling and installing my own OpenWRT build for it as well. Of course I say this with approximately 3 hours of uptime at this point, so time will tell. -- Bob Copeland %% www.bobcopeland.com
