[kwlug-disc] what is the perfect openWRT router?

[CrankyOldBugger]

What Khalid says is usually true, but in the case of my NetGear WNDR3700v2
the vendor's firmware actually broke the upgrade feature.  You couldn't
even flash new versions of the firmware from the vendor.  So to install
openWRT on that router I had to use TFTP.
