Hi all,
Did a search first but nothing stood out as being useful for what I want to do so I'm posting a new thread, hope that's okay.
I've been using computers for a good long time now and always build my own, but I'm not very hot on networking. My broadband is now a FTTH fibre optic connection that currently gives me ~300/50 Mbps and before I had fibre I was hooked up to a Sam Knows router to help with stats about broadband in Europe. Now I have fibre, the Sam Knows router isn't fast enough to keep up (the WRD-3600 in the title) and SamKnows said I could flash over their custom firmware to return it to a usable general router. I'd really like to do this to have as a second router on my network for VPN traffic to my company in the states and was wondering if any of you kind souls could give me a hand. Specifically, I'd like to reflash the router to factory settings, then flash it with the dd-wrt stuff so I can put my vpn (TorGuard) directly on the router. I think it should be possible, just that there's an intelligence shortfall between the idea and actually achieving it.
All the best,
B
