You have to start with the "mini" firmware and upgrade that to the full-featured firmware. Not sure why that works, but it does. :-) Other routers may be this way as well. All I can say to those interested in "Linux-ising" their routers is to read the how-to for their particular model on the DD-WRT website. There's also OpenWRT, I think, although I've never tried it. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
