OpenWRT does make a 2.4 kernel version _and_ a 2.6 kernel version. Use the 2.4 and the radios work fine.

They changed drastically the RAM/Flash in the units (downward) as the production ran on. There are some charts online to go by. But the skinny is use a WRT54GS v4 or lower. V1.1 & 2 were the "good" ones with double the RAM. >3) OpenWRT seems to be less stable and not as mature as dd-wrt, which I I guess this is someone subjective and OpenWRT is somewhat in flux with 2 products under the same brand right now. White Russian was the previous release which is still available. Used predominantly NVRAM configs and had a smaller audience of platforms that it would support. It did however have a great GUI with lots of features. Kamikaze is the "new" version which has moved to more traditional config files and has an objective to be more platform agnostic. As a long-time White Russian user I admit the GUI has a long way to go before it can be considered a replacement for the White Russian version. I myself have never encountered stability problems with either version. Not sure how much DD-WRT has improved. A few years back OpenWRT was the clear winner (in my mind - no flames please) and I haven't re-evaluated the competition lately. -dbc. _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- AstriCon 2009 - October 13 - 15 Phoenix, Arizona Register Now: http://www.astricon.net asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
