WRT300N v1.0 is supported now. I did it even before CC release, hooray :) For few minutes of testing I got a nice 20-22 Mb/s transfer using b43 driver (it doesn't support 802.11n features, so 802.11g speeds are available only). -- Rafał _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
