Immediately after unpacking and connecting the DD-WRT firmware easily played on it (which are now available for the V9 version of the router, so the selling date here). The wireless signal is even stronger than in routers which I had bought another 3-4 years ago for around 100 euros on this router. Therefore strong buy recommendation for those who do not need WiFi in the 5 GHz range and connect any hard drives etc. want (there is no USB connection).
