I am going to get back to some router hacking, as soon as some of the multi_core Arm64 bit SOC chips are affordable with some very fast ram (ddr 3,4,5). It's taking forever for those chips to become available at reasonable street pricing. I'm tired of the run of the mill embedded micros running embedded linux. Besides, my home office network is meager on the bandwidth needs at this time. >> Do you know which dev rooted this hardware and/or wrote the >> howto web page you reference above? > I thought a wiki should keep page edit history, but I can't find it.... Yep. I'm too lazy to expend the energy to figure it out, but, there's only a few folks hacking on mips 64 these days who would bother to post to the gentoo_wiki. Not a big deal. > Bruce thx, James
