... Is officially the coolest router ever made. :)

Just got one second hand for £20, and flashed it with OpenWRT, and I'm
pleasantly surprised how functional it is. SSH server, screen, ash,
iptables, IPv6 router, NFS support, and even its own nice little
package management system like apt-get. :D :D

The processor is MIPS, so I have a my gentoo box doing what it does
best - compiling, or more specifically cross compiling binaries that
I want to try on it. :)

I've also spotted vsftpd, a httpd, irssi, openVPN, dhcpd, snmpd
packages available. :o
