Full review
If you are looking for a wireless router that you can flash with open source firmware, then this is your router.

I bought 2 of these routers specifically to flash with dd-wrt, and to bridge my 2 wired networks.

For more information about dd-wrt visit: http://www.dd-wrt.com/

Specifically I used version v23 SP3 which has been serving me very well for the last couple of months.

DD-WRT does have some missing features that I miss from other routers (fixed ip assignment using dhcp). However the short coming is nothing compared to the orginal software that was shipping by Buffalo.

Using the new software, I can overclock router's cpu, boost signal range, detailed statistics, and gain ssh login. I hope that some of the missing features that I wanted will become available with v24
