What happened with ASUS routers this morning?
Boy am I glad I replaced stock firmware with OpenWRT the moment my router came out of box last week. It was also extremely painless experience, and I'd really recommend people to buy routers with OpenWRT support, even if they cost a little more. A router is something you buy for a decade or more, and it's worth the investment. Our livelihood depends on network availability, and depending on whims of terrible router firmware is not something to rely on.
