I have a question: What does this have to do with Fedora?
I've been following this thread with an interest to see what installing a software package on a router/firewall has to do with Linux?
Give me a clue or take this elsewhere (like a router list.)

They also have a commercial version and have limited some things (not necessarily DHCP assignments) in order to be able to sell the other version.
functionality just isn't there. You might try hacking the code to create your own version of DD-WRT and submitting it back to them, or find something else, like your Fedora box, to do your DHCP assignments (just to help bring this thread back on-topic.<Grin>)
If one wants to go that route, OpenWRT is probably a better choice.
I followed the OpenWRT until I got to the point where it asked me to get the right version of the software to install. I got lost there, searched for a while and gave up ...
I did not see nay place where there was an advanced version of DD-WRT for sale? I'll have to look again. I would pay a reasonable amount for it.

it is being used as a router for systems running fedora?

dd-wrt is based on linux?

you are the list administrator?
of the 16 posters to this thread, your post is only one objecting.
granted that dd-wrt may not be written with an embedded version of 'red hat' or 'fedora', but there are 'fedora' user who are interested in using and are using dd-wrt.
so, if you are not gaining anything from this thread, why not just add a filter to your email client to sent this thread to 'trash' and you will no longer have to follow this thread "to see what installing a software package on a router/firewall has to do with Linux".
i and 15 other subscribers are interested.
have a nice day.

It isn't quite fedora, but it is bonafied linux, usually with a kernel a few versions older than the one we have on Fedora. Because it is true linux one gets to use all the same tools (like wpa_supplicant etc) for mediating the wifi connection. You can scp the configuration files to the router and keep current version under CVS on your fedora box. In short, it is very fedora-friendly.

Make that 16. I've been running it on an old 450 mhz x86 box with everything stripped, boots from a CF card plugged into an IDE adaptor, headless, about 4 5 years now. Best kept secret in routers.
Yes, it is linux, busybox TBE.
