TechSmoke

I just picked one of these up. Pretty nice so far I guess. I got it mainly to run OpenWRT (Be sure to check out X-Wrt as well)

I ran into a bit of trouble. For some reason OpenWRT doesn’t want to grab a DHCP address from my DSL modem, I’m sure it’s PEBKAC but kinda sucks it would require any user intervention. The X-Wrt addon really polishs the web interface. OpenWRT is more for the geek crowd in that it’s made to hack everything via the CLI. I’m fine with the command line, but it requires more knowledge than I currently have. I’m by no means an elitist and like the easy GUI that has hints and tips/tricks. X-Wrt has a graph section that can show so cool stats, but alas firefox 2 thinks it can’t read them and prompts me to search for a plugin. owell. Hopefully I’ll get that sorted soon too.
There is built in stuff for QoS and asterix.

I suppose that’s all for now
