Comment (by anonymous):
I highly advise against installing OpenWRT BarrierBreaker (14.07) on the
Netgear WNR3500L unless you are okay to live with a WAN throughput of
30Mbps or less. I am on a 200Mbps line and did a speedtest using the 3
firmwares: stock, dd-wrt, and openwrt. Both stock and dd-wrt firmwares
were able to reach (and sustain) 200Mbps but openwrt was barely able to
sustain a 30Mbps download. According to the openwrt wiki, this is a known
issue with BCM47xx (WNR3500L chipset). Refer to
[http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/hardware/soc/soc.broadcom.bcm47xx] for more
details on the known-issues.
I can't stress enough.
