DD-DRT friendly gigabit router suggestions

Post by Red89GT »

I'm upgrading to shaws new broadband 50 and im looking for a new router capable of handling the new speeds. Shaw provides their firmware modified SMCD3GN router/modem which im getting put into bridge mode (modem only) as from what I have read, the router/modem running in gateway mode is not very voip friendly and also lacks the ability to customize the settings too much.

Currently I have a D-link dir-615 with dd-drt running.

The replacement has to be DD-WRT flash-able and handle voip/qos settings... So what do you suggest?

I would go to the store, and make sure it is a revision 1 version. the rev 2 is a work in progress when it comes to DD-WRT.

I looked up that router and a couple others. I ended up choosing the Asus RT-N16, flashed with the DD-WRT mega build
