does openwrt work on this? which version do I use

I think your question is a bit too techy for me! We purchased this unit to accommodate both pc's and MacBooks. Works great for any device we have.

While not officially listed in the table of hardware &lt;http://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/start&gt; at this time (August 3, 2014), that does not mean that it is not supported, it just means that no one has tested it extensively yet. Similar routers (WNDR*) seem to have varying levels of support. Remember that installing OpenWRT often voids manufacturer warranties. If you want to attempt to install OpenWRT on this device, have a look around the forums to see if there is anyone else has attempted the same thing. If the installation fails, you could end up with a (potentially permanently) $70 paperweight. There are ways of recovering these "bricked" routers, but, depending on how badly it was bricked, you may need serial or JTAG (I cannot say for sure if this router has either, but other routers in its family do) to unbrick it. Granted, that's the worst case scenario. I fixed my bricked WRT54G with just a Mac and an ethernet cable. If you are going to jump in, some guidelines: Know your router's RAM size, Flash size, Processor, and Wireless Chipset. Find a routers that ARE listed with similar hardware and look to those directions (as a group) for guidance. Of those, the two biggest things are the processor and the flash. The flash needs to be big enough to hold the firmware image, and the processor has to be able to run it. Atheros builds don't generally work on Broadcom, and vice versa, for example. Even within a processor brand, sometimes there are differences between models. Make especially sure that the build is listed as being compatible with the processor. -- As a general note, these guidelines could apply to any router that is not listed on the hardware table.

It should be pointed out that WNDRMACV2 builds have been available since 2013 at least. It works fine. It is correct that the model is not listed in the table in the wiki, but go to the download page, ar71xx section, and you'll see it.The enhanced build from the forum is also fine:https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=47382

Marvell released a new totally open source driver for the 88W8864 wireless chip that's in the WRT1900AC just today. http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px;=MTg3Mjk This should mean better support via OpenWRT as this was the main stumbling block.

Nope. This is the castrated version that is not hackable. Do yourself a favor and get the WRT54GL. The extra money pays for the extra cost needed for quality, even if you use the stock firmware (which I am using).

Yes, i have installed Ubuntu 14.04. only issue is wireless for which drivers are available from git (compile from source)

Depends on the firmware version, but this tip may help: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-wireless-networking-41/linksys-wusb54gc-v3-lucid-10-04-fine-out-of-box-w-minor-change-821123/

I have not personally tested it ... but I have run Arch Linux and it does have NetworkManager support and good community support -- so it should work -- likey with little issues.

It shouldn't matter what OS you are running. As long as your OS can map a network drive it will work

Yes, it is, using the iwlwifi driver. Although, you may or may not have the problem described here, fixed by the listed patch which may or may not be integrated into the main line kernel by now:https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=134871

Looking at the documentation, it does support PPPoE and the GUI looks decent. As for supporting a 255.255.0.0 subnet, it looks like it will but I have never tried it. http://dl.ubnt.com/guides/AirRouter/AirRouter_User_Guide.pdf

Not enough info in request. Assuming lapdock is subject. Will only work with Motorola units with same connections and Webtop software.

you can do that using ddwrt which is a free OS for routers that allows you to do things that you cannot do with out of the box software. Be carefull when installing it or you may brick your device. read carefully before doing it so that you understand the risks/rewards. ddwrt main page: http://www.dd-wrt.com/site/index ddwrt page for cisco e2000 http://dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Linksys_E2000 ddwrt page on how to do bridging that you want: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Repeater_Bridge enjoy Luis

Perfectly, getting ddwrt on it is a little tricky, but I have done it on two of these and they are both running for several months with no issues.

I just received mine this morning and I got a V3. I was worried that I would end up getting a V2 since DD-WRT can't work with it but I am going to install it tommorrow and give you the results :-D

The stock firmware did have a bridge mode, and if you google "bridge mode on asus rt-n16" the first link shows you how to set it up. However I would firmly recomend DD-WRT if you feel up to the task of installing it.

That's because it can be either. I use it to make a DSLR camera available on wifi. It's configurable to used as you need. I use OpenWRT to give more functionality.

yes but GUI is limited. Yes it supports 255.255.0.0. If you are only comfortable with GUI don't get this... you will need to teach yourself some basic linux operation to take advantage of this router.
