I have two identical routers at home, Netgear WNDR3700, one running
DD-WRT, and one running OpenWRT. Both are rock solid. DD-WRT benefits
from having a nice easy to use web interface whereas OpenWRT benefits
from being highly configurable. There's a few things (such as bridging)
that I found painful in DD-WRT but which work as you'd expect on OpenWRT.
