I've had cold feet about Linksys ever since Belkin acquired them.* I'm still running a couple of refurbished D-Link DIR825-C1 units (dual-band N300) with DD-WRT on both, and they work beautifully. I don't see any great need at this time to switch to 802.11ac. Since I bought them specifically to run DD-WRT, reflashing them wasn't a big deal for me, though it wasn't quite as easy to do as reflashing a classic WRT54G. * Belkin has been on my "don't buy anything of theirs except cables, and even then look for an alternative" list ever since their 2003 router spam fiasco. Sure, they backed off, but the fact that they even considered doing such a thing in the first place is asinine. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2003/11/07/help_my_belkin_router/ http://www.theregister.co.uk/2003/11/07/help_my_belkin_route...
