    People still use DD-WRT over Tomato?

    Genuine question: Does DD-WRT do anything Tomato can't?

    Is DD-WRT better than tomato for WRT54G2 routers?

    Re: DD-WRT Vulnerability announced

    Not even sure if Tomato supports WRT54G2 routers. dd-wrt has a few niché features that Tomato doesn't do, but Tomato is incredibly lightweight.

    The coolest thing I've done with Tomato so far (which isn't entirely credited to Tomato, but couldn't be done without Tomato) is the ability to wake my computer up remotely (from standby or from warm shutdown). This is achieved with the help of SSH. However... I have been tinkering with Asterisk PBX recently and have been able to configure my business phone line to have a secret extensions with a secret PIN that allows me to just dial a number and essentially turn my computer on.

    Felt good when it worked. Blew my friends away with the sheer awesomeness.
