Just bought a Linksys speedbooter router. Which firmware is safer to
install, Sveasoft or hyperwrt? Both offer the improvements I want, but
which is more bullet-proof, i.e. safer?

Thanks

They are all pretty much of a muchness considering that they are really
just the products of tinkerers fiddling with the publicly available Linksys distribution. Some fiddlers are
less rigorous than others when it comes to testing their work.

Sveasoft were charging people $20 or so to download their latest bugs,
I don't know about the current situation.

I like Ewrt http://www.portless.net/menu/ewrt/ as it works OK. As well as
the standard tweaks it implements a captive portal (NoCatSplash) and there is sufficient memory
left to run kismet drone (memory will be less of a problem with the
speedbooster).
