Looking all over for good info on the Actiontec MI424RW Rev I, and while there wasn't much love shown to this unit, I was hoping to use it as an AP or backup router. My home has a foil-faced sheathing that blocks the wifi signal, and I found that putting an AP in my garage with a powerline ethernet extender kit works great. This is how I was keeping my doorbell cam and another cam connected. But that $15 no-name AP died. I've got it covered with an even older router for now.
I know it's running U-Boot, and OpenRG, but I'm hesitant to go forward. I used info from this site years ago to put Arch Linux ARM on a pair of bargain-bin GoFlex Net's and was hoping to leverage it to put DD-WRT or OpenWRT on this router, but nobody has checked in with any good guides for doing it, at least to this revision of the router. Most info is related to the "jungo" bootloader on earlier revisions. I don't care about keeping the coax interface, I'm just pleased it has USB3 and has two radios. Oh, and a UART serial port with pins.
Thanks.
Dave
