Is anyone else using DD wrt firmware on their IP camera networks? I have been using it for about three years with no problems. (small 12-20 camera set ups) If you are setting up small IP cam networks you should look into this firmware. It has VPN and wireless hot spot support.

I use DDWRT on WRT54GL's and older pre-v5 models.


I like it for the expanded functionality. It also is more reliable than the OEM firmware, although a 54GL running OEM firmware is pretty reliable. I think it is due to the amount of RAM on the router board compared to the latest 54G's.

I'm using a WRT54G v8 from home now, even the new ones can work and proved extended functionality.


(This model router is like $40 at wal mart.)

I would love to try it on the Asus thats around now and supported.

The Asus WL500g premiums work very well although I just started using them. I was using the Buffalo WHR HP 54's till they got in their lawsuit. My newest mesh set up is using 9 Asus WL's and has been up for about 3 months with no problems. I did just update all the nodes to the V24 firmware. You can get them online for about $50 each.
