Not a bad idea and I could present on that or others. I did do some
custom OpenVPN stuff with a DD-WRT for a client a little while back. I
was thinking on doing a mini presentation on the OpenVPN stuff. I could
do one on both or two different presentations, either way.

I looked into OpenWRT but seemed like you had to build it or some steps
I did not want to undertake. I ended up with DD-WRT which I think is
OpenWRT based, not sure. Either way I was very impressed with the DD-WRT
web interface, which BLOWS the Linksys one away. Had bandwidth graphs
and stuff, it was very impressive.

I need to toss my neutered WRT54G v5 so I can run a full DD-WRT with
OpenVPN. Right now I can only run the one without, due to being
neutered...

Heck might even do one some day on Flashing Android based phones. After
all Android is Linux based ;)
