DD-WRT is not factory installed.  My engineer had flashed the DD-WRT
firmware before I got my hands on them :)

The DD-WRT firmware is available on the CD and it can be flashed
directly from the factory installed firmware.

Just a bit of info in case you go with the Buffalo product.   The
default IP on the factory installed FW is 192.168.11.100 and not
192.168.11.1 as printed in the Quick Guide.  Whereas, the default IP
in the DD-WRT FW is 192.168.11.1 as printed in the doc!

Regret the incorrect info in the earlier message.
