Hello.
I have Netgear R6900v2.
There is 128mb ram.
Can brainslayer add transmission to rom?

Looking at the file sizes on current release, if Netgear has a hard limit on size of firmware image, then no. But, we can always find out the hard way.

So....
I tried openwrt
1. Flash from stock to openwrt (70 337 895 bytes). Bootloop.
2. Flash from stock to openwrt default image(7 182 901 bytes). Boot. Choose openwrt image(55 931 965 bytes). See warning about image size. Choose "force update". Bootloop.
