If you still can't make it work, please contact FON support at https://www.fon.com/en/support/contactUs As for comparing the Fonera firmware with OpenWRT, that’s a bit off-topic for this post. Eddie is giving a decent summary, but please use http:/forum.fon.com for further discussion. As for development on 2.0g being discontinued, have you even read the post I wrote? I can understand if you’re a bit sceptical about our promises and think “I’ll know it when I see it”, but don’t pretend you know something you don’t.

The advantage? Let's see, if you can live without the community stuff (facebook, picasa uploaders and stuff) on your router, you get an impressive amount of software to choose from, not just what Fon wants you to have. I already put the root filesystem on an external hard drive, from there I am able to run a simple webserver and ftp, the possibilities are very interesting. Print server function is working as well, that was one of the features I think I used most on the USB port. If you go to OpenWRT's homepage, http://oldwiki.openwrt.org/OpenWrtDocs%282f%29Hardware%282f%29Fon%282f%29Fonera2.html you can see the installation howto. Even better, you can use the Gargoyle FonFlash utility available here: http://www.gargoyle-router.com/download.php But beware: Only start doing this if you read everything three times, and you really know, what you're doing!

I am looking forward to a 2.0g release, so i will feel a little less shortchanged. Hi Matthijs, i am glad someone is finally going to straighten things up.

I'm sorry that it will not have the function bridge. I think it's very useful to have this function in an access point: is there the possibility that you implement this feature in a later firmware? (I hope much yes ;-)) I’m happy that there will be an update to the 2.0g Fonera … I’m sorry that it will not have the function bridge.

It’s good to see that Fon’s investing in someone to take care of the dirty work (at first)! I wish you all the luck, and hope to see some exciting developments appear in time.
