You can't be suggesting OpenWRT is newbie-friendly.
Powerful and flexible, yes. Newbie or casual-user friendly, no.
If Tomato is not enough, then DD-WRT, but Tomato being more stripped down becomes more newbie friendly by default.
- wtallis 11y agoWhat specific features or capabilities do you think a current version of OpenWRT does in a less newbie-friendly way than Tomato or DD-WRT? They've all got web interfaces that present a status summary upon log-in and have pages for configuring different categories of settings (WAN, WiFi, port forwarding, etc.). Unless you think Tomato's default color scheme makes it vastly more usable, you'll have to point to something specific. (And while it's been a while since I last used DD-WRT, my experience was that it had a multitude of options that were non-functional or incorrectly documented, so I'll need some pretty strong convincing that it's got any advantage over OpenWRT.)
