Feb 04, 2019 · DD-WRT is a complete toolkit. It comes with nearly everything you could want in a router as well as a whole lot more that you’ll probably never even look at. That’s simultaneously one of DD-WRT’s biggest strengths and weaknesses. For people looking for maximum control, DD-WRT’s plethora of options is a welcome breath of fresh air.

If I'm not mistaken Brainslayer is the only one working on the Marvell units now, as Kong bailed some time ago. As far as DD-Wrt goes it is much better than any stock f/w out there, it just comes back to lousy drivers and the chip set used . because there doesn't seem to be half as many issuse with other routers with different chip sets used. oh well, I have bunches of previous years, most all 2018 and all of 2019 Kong DD-WRT builds for the EA8500 : ' ) Some previous EA8500 Kong builds can be found 'HERE' NOTE : only the Kong_30700M-093016 directory contains both EA8500-factory-to-ddwrt.img & ddwrt-Linksys-EA8500.bin Jul 11, 2017 · Download both the Mini-Generic build and VPN Generic build of DD-WRT (dd-wrt.v24_mini_generic.bin and dd-wrt.v24_vpn_generic.bin).

They appeared to be fixed, DD-WRT for Kong mods that is. I was happy to see this last night and was glad I went ahead with the upgrade right away. Thanks for the link oddie121. Kong stopped DD-WRT development and removed his repository in Jul 2019. Kong builds were cryptographically signed to verify authenticity, tested on hardware before upload, could upgrade via the command line ddup tool, and had a bootstrap tool to install the opkg package manager for additional features. The dual core ARM CPU is beneficial for running multiple simultaneous services on the router. SFE accelerated NAT was added to DD-WRT since build 33006 (kernel 3.10+), which Kong tested at 900 Mb/s throughput (download and upload). OEM firmware uses Broadcom's proprietary CTF (Cut-Through Forwarding). Throughput with IPv4 NAT routing tops out at:
