Routers that work with DD WRT - field-engineer/workmarketplace GitHub Wiki

Router Recommended The DD-WRT community recommends the Linksys WRT54G, WRT350N and WRT600 N, Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 and the router WL-500G and Asus WL-520gU. These routers have been found to be 100 percent compatible with the DD-WRT firmware and showed no blinking problems. The Buffalo has the best range. Asus routers have additional USB ports that allow you to connect drives or printers in a network. The Linksys WRT350N and WRT600N use the fastest 802.11n specification, in addition to the available USB ports. Enterprise router is a basic product for any business/enterprise.

Advantages of DD-WRT

DD-WRT firmware flash on the router is a risky proposition, but may be able to end up with the functionality of a much more expensive router for the disorder. Some of the many advantages that the DD-WRT can bring to your router include the ability to amplify the processor signal and overclock the router in order to have a higher signal strength and faster router performance. You can also create your own virtual private network so that you can access your home resources from anywhere there is an Internet connection. DD-WRT risks You run the risk of destroying independent router completely beyond repair, trying to flash DD-WRT. The common language on the site and user forum of DD-WRT is that "walled" router - that is, you have made it as useful as a brick. In case of doubt, I would go back. Read all the instructions for your router - many of which are in the messages in the forum - and follow it completely. Even after doing all this, you could still brick router, so do not do it with something you can not afford to replace.
