![]() For example, Linksys E4200 (released, Jan 2011) has DD-WRT support but no Open-WRT support as of now.Ģ. Currently, DD-WRT is trying to merge its code-base with Open-WRT so that packages can be mutually used.ġ. However, v23 onwards (2006), the linux kernel is based on the Openwrt kernel. DD-WRT (>2004) also started as linksys based firmware based on the Alchemy firmware by Sveasoft. Open-WRT (another open-source router firmware project) started in 2004 as Linksys based firmware built on top a linux distribution consisting of customizable software packages. DD-WRT based on Linux kernel, just like a normal personal computer, is limited only by the physical limits such as flash memory size, RAM size and CPU clock speed. This is in contrast to the factory firmware which allows only a preset functionality support. DD-WRT is a third party/open source router firmware distribution which allows the user increased flexibility to control the hardware features of the router.
