Yesterday I sent a email to friendly Jeremy from Asus.
I'd like to share with you, since we have some black belt degree firmware experts here, maybe some ideas could be implemented on alternative firmwares.
"1) USB Disk Support: I am a Mac user, and have some external hard drives formatted on HFS+ file system. Was a little frustrating to me that I will need to format my HDs to turn it able to be recognized by this router. What is the possibilities to have a upgrade on firmware turning on this type of File System (HFS+) ?
2) TX Power: I made some tests with this configuration and doesn't get any kind of change on signal strength. What range of values are safe to use? 500mW is a safe value? Could you explain better what kind of tuning could be made on this parameter? Increasing TX Power on EA-N66U affects the input signal received from RT-N66U os just the output signal when acting as a repeater?
3) DHCP Server: Please, include a way to name the reservations made on Manual DHCP.
4) Wireless Mac Filter: Please, include a way to name the entries on Filter list.
5) 2.4GHz Wireless channel: How can I configure channels beyond 11 here in Brazil? I want to set to 13, but doesn't appears on the list.
6) Administration: Would be nice to have a way to enable remote administration, https support and port configuration to admin interface.
7) Dropbox, Google Drive: Would be nice to have integration with Dropbox, Google Drive, etc, allowing the router to sync folders on hard drive without having any computer enabled.
8) Download Master: This integration with Dropbox, Google Drive, etc, would allow the router to scan a folder on hard drive looking for torrents or nzb files, starting a download "automagicly". I wouldn't need to manually upload a file to router anymore."
Best Regards!
