Question about
Alternitave Firmware?
I bought this router about a year ago and I started reading about putting on alternative firmware/OSes such as DD-WRT or Tomato. Does anyone know if I am able to do it with this model?
No, you're stuck with what linksys provides.

It depends which revision of the router you have.
v1.0 & 1.3 support the "micro" build of DD-WRT which is still a step up from the stock Linksys firmware.
v1.1 supports DD-WRT v24 sp2 - build 1399. Hopefully you have this revision.
v1.5 has no support for DD-WRT.

If your hardware can support it, I would recommend Tomato.
