It is sort of commercial. But the money aspect seems to keep them motivated. People love OpenWRT because it is open and libre. Also it's more like running your own linux on a low-power box. It's got package-management even after it's up and running. People love FreeWRT because it's got a more accessible configurable build system. People love Tomato because it's red, has a nice interface, solid feature set, is straight forward, and can be caramelized for flavor.
People don't care about HyperWRT anymore because it's kind of old now. Improve this answer. Never seen any reason to try anything else. Another Tomato fan here. I've tried a few different firmware, but tomato does everything I need, and better than most.
Also I found the stock firmware wouldn't correctly reconnect a pppoe connection, tomato does this flawlessly. Feel free to explore the rest of sysupgrade options by typing 'sysupgrade' in the terminal. The instructions from the Tomato upgrade instructions are confirmed to work with Backfire Unverified Information!

I had some stability issues decided to go with white russian, I downgraded with the web gui to the latest default version of openwrt-brcm These instructions are linux specific, if you are running any other OS your mileage may vary.
I was able to get into failsafe mode consistently by hitting the reset button for 2 seconds after the DMZ led lights up. Unit is now available at Get the code into the tmp directory of the WRT from the failsafe telnet session and then overwrite the firmware with the new image using mtd.
I had to unplug to make it reload. Make sure the commands you have previously typed have finished completely before you pull the juice.
According to Internet sources your WRT may be fixed at this point. Mine still would not come up, it seems that I had some nvram variables mucked up, so back to failsafe again. The cleanup script gets your nvram variables back to a sane state and gets rid of anything not used by OpenWrt. The aircrack package doesn't fit on the router with the OpenWRT Using the OpenWRT 8. By moving libcrypto from the aircrack dependency package libopenssl into the ramdisk and backlinking into original directory you can install wl as well, but airodump freezes on start and causes the router to reset.
So this guide is using Kamikaze 7. If you already have a newer version of OpenWRT installed, the easiest way is using sysupgrade as described in generic.
You need the aircrack from whiterussian backports, because there are no aircrack packages available for 7. We use the wl tool for configuring the wifi to use monitor mode needed for airodump-ng , not airmon-ng. For your wardriving purposes, you need to start airodump in background and save IVs to files. Instead of wep you can use any prefix you like, it is used as a prefix to the files with IVs like wep Show pagesource Old revisions Backlinks Back to top. The solution is to go back to OpenWrt 8.
Pin 2 3. WRT54GL v1. So how then? You will need this. Do not go further until you can see the message. After the successful firmware upgrade, reset your router by pressing the reset button for at least 5 sec.
If nothing happens, then unplug the router, then plug in again. Wait for the router to finish the boot process the POWER light stops flashing , then press the reset button on the back for 5 seconds. The router should do a reset now. Research them yourself, decide what features you require, and test them. Then decide which one you want. My suggestion is that unless you have a current problem, do not upgrade firmware unnecessarily. First, everytime you download, install new firmware — you take a chance on introducing new problems.
If the router is working, not displaying any recognizable errors … then leave it alone. Just because a vendor has identified a problem exceptions being those related to security or verifiable threats , if your network is not suffering from the issue — then pass, unless and until it becomes an issue. To often, when we anticipate a problem, chase a solution when there is no problem — we end up introducing instability into our network or system.
