DD-WRT to power Buffalo Wi-Fi routers
,----[ Quote ]
| Buffalo Technology has announced that it will
| be using the free DD-WRT Linux-based
| alternative open source firmware in several of
| its upcoming consumer and small business
| wireless routers, including the WZR-HP-G300NH,
| WHR-HP-G300N and WHR-HP-GN. Discussing the new
| partnership, Ralph Spagnola, vice president of
| sales at Buffalo Technology, said that he
| considers the move to be a "natural evolution,"
| adding that, âWith DD-WRT, we now deliver
| professional grade solutions at entry-level
| pricesâ.

Open Source Routers Are Worth Considering
,----[ Quote ]
| When you buy a computer today, you choose
| between the consumer-friendly platforms of
| Windows or Mac. Alternatives such as Linux are
| completely ignored.
|
| The kernel of the Linux operating system is
| "open source," meaning that no company owns or
| controls it completely. Commercial software
| packages are built around the Linux kernel
| (such as Red Hat), but the core platform
| remains free for anyone to revise, modify, and
| authenticate.
|
| Many folks are leery of open source software
| because society is programmed to embrace
| products from companies like Microsoft and
| Apple. Linux is universally celebrated for its
| rock-solid performance and stability, but it
| requires a little more effort to find layman-
| like support and help.

GNU/Linux: Replacing a Dead Router with a Linux System
,----[ Quote ]
| Enter an old Dell Dimension XPS R400 PC that has
| been gathering dust in the closet. It has an
| 80GB Western Digital IDE drive, a Startech
| 10/100 NIC and 192MB of RAM in it. I received
| this old PC from a client that bought a new,
| custom built system from my company in October
| 2007. He no longer needed the Dell and was just
| going to trash it. Instead I convinced him to
| let me wipe the drive, install Mandriva 2008 on
| it and try to sell it on eBay. It did not sell
| when I listed it. The client did not want it
| back, so I just stuck it in the IT junk closet
| with several other old systems and flaky
| monitors. I decided to make this old Dell PC
| into my ânewâ router. Since it already has
| Mandriva 2008 on it I figured I could use that
| to get routing going and then upgrade the
| Mandriva later.
