Not a pro or con on DD-WRT, but it is a very functional piece of software. I have been running it on my Linksys WRT54GL for 3 or 4 years. It supports DDNS, VLANS, VLAN tagging, Bridging, Wireless( setting all parameters), MAC radius Client, Wireless Security(WEP, ALL WPA, Radius) MAC filters, WDS, ... hell much more than I care to comment on. Load it on a cheap router(http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Supported_Devices) and see what you think. For Free, it gives 'TIK a hell of a run for the money.
