DD-WRT


Released January, 2009

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Huge community, lots of support information. Many useful features for network administrators. Ability to over/underclock processor (depends on router).

The Cons:Has the potential to brick a router. Can be tricky to install--not for all users or the faint-of-heart.

DD-WRT is not actually a product, it is a 3rd party firmware for routers, which, in many cases, adds much more functionality to the router.  More information can be found here.
