It's the good chance bit of your reply that actually implies it's people not doing it right. Wish I had one here to play with

What have people tried putting on it?

DD-WRT is a work in progress so it ain't that. Tomato is for the Broadcom chips so it ain't that. OpenWRT is not listed so it ain't that.

So unless they've tried putting the wrong Netgear firmware on it ...

If they wanted to stop people upgrading the firmware why didn't they just leave out the upgrade firmware section in the rebadged HTML pages!
