on the homepage it say's it's free for home use... would you mind correcting that as your clearly misleading people by saying that crap and charging funds for software that is not entierly your work.....

the madwifi and atk9k (we are the main developers) driver inst gpl and includes tons of your work which results in features only ddwrt has got. so we charge users using devices made for professional use.

what i am saying is that there is no distinction between people who use it for professional use from those that use it as a simple home router on their old computer .......

so why am i asked to pay for using your software on a old computer for home use when you homepage clearly says ddwrt remains free of cost for homeuse

You get the DD-WRT part for free, but the use of the Wi-Fi Drivers are the part you are paying for in the x86 version.

So if you just want the routing function of a box, then you are set for free, but if you need Wi-Fi then you have to pay the fee.

Did that explain it?

Now just dont get me started on the support you will (or should I say NOT) get for your payment!
