thanks for your reply merlin. i have use toastman's firmware for the N66 in the past and i know speeds took a pretty good hit with it compared to stock. does that mean your speeds for the N66 should be comparable to stock on the N66 as well? i don't think his was able to take advantage of H/W acceleration since the wireless driver was closed source...
Tomato does not support HW acceleration. Beside being a closed-source module that only Broadcom has the sources for, many Tomato features would cause HW acceleration to get disabled anyway, making it pretty pointless.
