Feb 17, 2017 - to install DD WRT on this Linksys EA6400 router. Party firmware see:. This feature is not available right now. Please try again later.
Hello Zajec, thanks for the reply. - USB 3.0 I presume this is only a matter of time. I can live with 2.0 for now, even with only one port.
- Broadcom BCM43217 2x2 802.11b/g/n transceiver is a 2.4GHz radio, used in EA6300 / EA6400. EA6500 / EA6700 should use the BCM4331 - is there a table of supported radio chipsets, please? - No need for 802.11ac.
Neverwinter nights games like fantage. - BCM4360 not supported: Are you sure? Asus RT-AC66N seems to have the same chipset and from what I've heard, DD-WRT is runnig there, so I presume, OpenWRT should as well. I would like to have this HW because: USB 3.0, 3x3 instead of 2x2, Gigabit WLAN, CPU able to encrypt higher VPN/IPSec transfer rates.
I would prefer to stay with one device for at least few years. Money's not the issue. The HW capability and support for OpenWRT is. Any ideas / updates folks, please? According to this list: the EA6300, EA6400 and EA6700 are using a ARM based BCM4708 SoCs.
The EA6500 is MIPS based and uses a BCM4706. All the Broadcom devices with USB 3.0 support are using a ARM SoC and they are not supported by OpenWrt, OpenWrt will not even boot. The EA6500 should work with OpenWrt more or less at least Ethernet, no Wifi. I am interested in the new ARM based Broadcom BCM470X SoCs, but they are pretty expensive, the cheapest I could find here was the Linksys EA6400 for 140 Euro. I just compiled dropbear from source you supplied, put it on flashdrive and added some script into the startup sequence. Now i made it better - i put dropbear into firmware (removed some linksys rubbish to make things fit) and put tools i need into the large JFFS we have.
I then redirect /opt to JFFS and kick off some init-scripts from that /opt during startup. Now i have openvpn server, my own custom firewall scripts (linksys's vision of firewalling is a nightmare) and dropbear. (Last edited by andlommy on 3 Nov 2013, 23:59).

The upstream brcm80211 drivers currently only support one 11ac chipset, ie. This is a single stream with SDIO host interface supported by the fullmac driver brcmfmac. For chipsets like 4360 we need to add AC phy support to brcmsmac. So far we do not have green light to do so.
Regards, Arend in response to a question regarding support for recent Asus router (uses Broadcom too) If you want real OpenWrt you are out of luck at the moment. This router uses a very different chipset from the rt-ac66u that one is mips this is arm, most info is probably not all that applicable from the rt-ac66u. The rt-ac68u however is the similar arm router from asus. Those missing components are built into the binary drivers that reside in GPL tarballs, probably best to just try and patch those to work if possible anything else is probably too complicated unless broadcom releases better source. You can get a good amount of information by decompiling the drivers but actually reimplementing components could be tricky.
