Tomato Firmware General Info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tomato_firmware. I read that Tomato RAF, Toastman, and Shibby are popular for RT-N66U. And the Shibby version seems to have the most number of features.

UPDATE 11/29/2012: Still "backordered", no idea when this router is going to actually ship to those who bought it.

Update 11/29/2012: After being in "BACKORDER" status earlier today, it has now suddenly gone to "Carrier Pickup - Your item(s) have been processed and delivered to the carrier for pickup." Is it really being shipped or is TD just trying to stem the tide of mass cancellations due to the backorder status?

I've been waiting for this router for awhile. And no tax in CA. Repped!

good catch buddy.

I've been waiting to upgrade my WRT54GL with this. Just got it and looking forward to the uprade.

Glad you bought one as well, beensent17. Let's collect Tomato and DD-WRT links here in the wiki so people can find all the info needed here.

Newegg price is $139.99 after $20 rebate card.

Been looking out for this for a while. No tax to NJ unlike Newegg. Thanks OP Repped.

Please try to get Amazon to match this. I have a gift card burning a hole in my pocket.

In for one

I'm not getting free shipping to OR for some reason.

awww yeah was waiting for no rebate deal on this router, thanks!

Got one. We needed a new router. Ours is old. We are just a family looking to use it. Probably overkill but we like speed of course. Any advice or insight welcome Thanks OP Repped I have not idea what Tomato is

stupid question:
is this - TL-WDR4300 even worth it to look at for 40 bux AF?
that's another deal going on right now.
