The Devs would need one to see if it would work. I assume BT stands for Brtish Telecom, and while I don't know the practices in the UK, I know that here, in the good 'ol U.S. of A, most ISP's give their customers really crappy equipment (Especially in the South) and you are usually better off with your own equipment.
dd-wrt does not support/will not support modem/router combo's.
Are you sure? I've seen the word "Danube" several times in TRAC

Kingston 4GB USB-disk 128 MB swap + 1.4GB ext3 on /opt + 2 GB ext3 on /mnt
Copperjet 1616 modem in ZipB-config
Asterisk, pixelserv & Pound running on router
Another Asus RT16N as WDS-bridge
It had kinda skipped my mind that this was a Router/Modem combo.. Woops; I was only really thinking of using the routing parts of the device.
Looks like I'll have to save up for a decent device to run dd-wrt on; my current cheap router and cheap wireless access point are both too cheap to support it.
It was worth grabbing at straws with the free BT (yes British Telecom) box I got as it seemed to have all the necessary Broadcom bits. Shame I can't turn this fairly naff bit of kit into something useful.

Why not use it as a slave router. If you plugin a usb hard disk into the usb port you can have a network drive.
Other than that not much can be done with the BT HH. _________________ Regards
