Hi Sup and All,
Once upon a time there were a nice and well equipped device on a fairly good price from a well known vendor called ASUS WL500GP. Then ASUS decided, that this device is too good so they made a similar one and called it ASUS WL500GP V2 (mainly a bit slower processor and the wifi isn't miniPCI, but builtin, not a big issue), but this was not supported by the much loved 7.09 release. This modification was not advertised, and when I bougth mine I was going for the cheapest as I did not know there are two hardware revisions, and got one of these V2-s, which were cheaper. :-(
That's why I'm waiting for almost 2 months now to be able to install an OPENWRT on it, cause I really want to make it into an SSH/SCP server to provide me with an unrestricted, secure and fast file and internet access from my workplace and to be able to use it as a torrent client as well. Currently my Ubuntu does this job. :-)
On the supported devices page it's highlithed as WIP (work in progress), and I found that it's supported since changeset 10693:

I'm just wondering if this will be included in the new release or not. :-)
If not then I'll consider buyibng an other one with HW revision 1 (if I can) and sell this one on e-bay or something (ofc ).
Thanks for your help in advance and have a great weekend. :-)
