I just downloaded and installed the DD-WRT v24SP2-MULTI (01/23/12) std firmware on my Buffalo WHR-HP-G300N.  It works great! After changing the wireless channel width  setting to 40MHz I am now able to get 300Mbs connection rates.  Woo hoo!  

 

I was hoping that this release would have support for OpenVPN in it.  It's a little confusing since it is mentioned in the release change log and in the Help box in Services --> VPN, and more... in the Help box only displays additional information on the PPTP client/server configs.  Maybe in the next release?

 

All in all a great router though. Since ditching my flakey Linksys 150N all 11 wireless devices in the house are getting better signal strenth and through put.

With this new firmware on WHR-HP-G300N, the router often fails to connect via PPPoE. When connected, the connection suffers from massive packet loss. This doesn't happen with another router.

The US version does not support the USB 3G and 4G sticks.
