Hi,
I am considering the purchase of a wireless router. Open source
firmware would be a very big plus.
However...
So far I was able to determine that the Linksys WRT54 and WRT54g have
several flavors of free open source firmware. But are there other
routers that have this?
Where can I find a comparison or at least a list of such routers?

I searched the forum and the rest of the internet. Nowhere did I find a
chart or table comparing open source firmwares. Not even the ones
available for the WRT54 family.

I really hope that it is only my fault for not looking hard enough or
in the right places.

How am I to chose the right router and the right firmware for me?

Yesterday I read that open-source is available for the Broadcom chip based
routers, including Linksys and I am sure others (such as Belkin).

Hope that helps some.
