I am definitely more "user" than "dev", so I'm posting this in OpenWrt Users.

I know that OpenWrt work for Netgear WNDR4300 is on-going, but I do see:

 http://patchwork.openwrt.org/patch/4273/

from Nov 2, 2103 which starts with the comment "Extended the Makefile to generate a 
working factory reset image for Netgear WNDR4300."

Awesome!

Except, its changes don't seem to be incorporated into:

 
http://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/trunk/ar71xx/OpenWrt-ImageBuilder-ar71xx_generic-for-linux-x86_64.tar.bz2

Should I just be patient and this patchwork stuff will eventually make it into 
ImageBuilder?  Or do these two things have nothing to do with one another?

(Like I said, I'm more "user" than "dev".)

Various related mumblings...

I have a D-Link DIR825B1, and somewhat haphazardly managed to install "BARRIER BREAKER 
(Bleeding Edge, r38636)" on it (I wasn't really intending to install a nightly bleeding edge 
build, but that's how it worked out).  Then I learned how to config all four of the RTL8366S's LAN 
ports onto their own (switch-internal) VLANs, and disable "enable_learning" so that all 
packets go through the CPU (OpenWrt), in order to create 4 separate 
fully-firewalled-from-one-another LAN subnets, with separate DHCP scopes for each subnet.

At this point, I wanted to start running BIND in order to use some of its 
"view" filtering abilities, between the LAN subnets (I have done this sort of 
thing elsewhere, non-OpenWrt).  I also wanted to run the ISC DHCP (with IPv6) client on 
the WAN side because I'm seeing managed-DHCPv6 RAs but the default OpenWrt config wasn't 
getting any DHCPv6 config from the WAN side.  And since I wanted to do that, I figured 
I'd toss in the ISC DHCP server (with IPv6) on the LAN side too.  And, naturally, radvd 
too.

In trying to figure out how to "uninstall" things like dnsmasq, I learned about 
ImageBuilder and spent a few days learning about how to use it... and then discovered 
that my D-Link doesn't have enough flash to store the image that I ending up building 
(close, but not quite).

Soooo.... after digging and dithering for a few days, I ended up bringing a 
WNDR4300 home from the store.

And that's where I'm at.  Is Christmas coming?
