Does Asuswrt support the EBG15

[danno]

Best I can tell the EBG15 is using some wireless router firmware since it is a wired router but still has some code that supports wireless.
So does Asuswrt have a level / version for this router?

I think you mean "Does asuswrt-merlin support the EBG15?". The answer is "no".

Because it's made to support AiMesh and you have to be able to configure the Nodes. Fun fact this Router can be configured in AP Mode which without WLAN turns it into a regular Switch.

Does Asuswrt support the EBG15

No. In addition to what has already been posted in response above. One can check the list of supported routers at the Asus-Merlin website:

And to address the inevitable next question of why isn't it supported, or when will it be supported. See the pinned subforum topic [FAQ] READ ME FIRST before posting a question.

Q: Will you add support for model XYZ?
A: The decision whether or not to support a new model depend on a long list of factors, which may evolve over time. Right now:

- It needs to be Broadcom-based
- It needs to be widely available (not just in two or three countries)
- It needs to have high-end hardware so I don't have to fight with lack of flash or RAM
- It needs to receive frequent enough GPLs so I won't have to regularly skip it due to the GPL being outdated
- I need to have one
- I need to have the time to try supporting it
- I need to have the motivation to try supporting it

Each new model requires its own dedicated support. That means every time I work on a new firmware release, I have to work on each separate model, and I need GPL releases from Asus for each individual model, and I need to merge each of them separately. So that means if I support 10 different routers, then I need to merge in the content of 10 different GPL releases, and these need to be close enough to one another to still be compatible. The more models I support, the harder this is to accomplish, therefore I am VERY conservative regarding adding any new model.

So don't ask if/when a new model will be supported. I cannot speculate about future model support, and until I have working support for a model, I cannot answer that question.
