Well, I left my new Linksys E3000 router running the stock Linksys firmware for a whole day… before deciding to upgrade it to the excellent DD-WRT custom firmware!
I’ve used DD-WRT on my old Linksys WRT-54G routers for a few years now so was very familiar with its features and benefits. I’m still running DD-WRT on a couple of WRT-54Gs acting as client wireless bridges so it made sense to upgrade the E3000 to run the same firmware. The DD-WRT web admin interface is much better than the stock Linksys one, and now all my routers are using the same consistent admin interface it should make administration a little easier.
