Hmm... LEDE is a new one to me. Sounds pretty interesting. I guess I should probably decide on whether I will continue to want a GUI or if I want to live on the CLI. The AdvancedTomato GUI looks pretty clean, but the OpenWRT/LEDE option looks really powerful.
So many choices. :) Thanks for the info!
