Not sure how I missed this thread. However, if they do end up working with a few devs here on the OpenWrt team (fingers crossed), it would do wonders for Belkin/Linksys brand as well as for the Marvell SoCs which have had zero exposure to the open source community because of lack of drivers. I never understood why Linksys (under Cisco) didn't capitalize on the OpenSource Market after the huge success of the WRT54GL series. Linksys (under Belkin) is appealing to its target end-users perfectly. As an aside, this could potentially mean extended support for pre-existing Linksys EAxxxx routers which are based off the Marvell SoC (maybe?). Hope this isn't too good to be true. Unless there are some NDAs involved, it would be great to hear some updates on this subject. Best Regards, Chirag
