This Actiontec PK5000 is advertised as "functionality as good as a WHR-HP-G54 running Tomato or DD-WRT" in all the literature. dd-wrt: Currently there is no port of dd-wrt for the Actiontec PK5000. http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=7807 It is running busybox so you have telnet available to look around. It has a similar CPU to Avila, but there has been scant effort to port it. I believe there was an issue with Qwest proprietary portion of the firmware and copyright, as well as memory utilization precluding a swift port. tomato: No port available. Sorry! You might be able to upgrade your current firmware to the latest and greatest: http://portforward.com/routergui/Actiontec/PK5000_-_Qwest/Upgrade_Firmware.htm > Nathan > --------------------------------------------------- > PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us > To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: > http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss -- (602) 791-8002  Android (623) 239-3392 Skype (623) 688-3392 Google Voice HomeSmartInternational.com --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
