Some of the impovements is really strange - multiple pppoe connection support - who needs this? Internal busybox version downgraded - they still can't build insmod??? Iptables not stripped, eats extra 150k, seems they've "hand-made" firmware. References to wl600g, unused scripts, executables and so on. Still mix of kernel modules from 2.4.5 and 2.4.20. I'm wonder how this still works...
As for tx power - this is on the advanced wireless settings - so it's legal for user, but illegal for Asus to allow this changes by end user (they're violating FCC & CE rules).
If someone from ASUS reads this message - please ask your guys to create "right" firmware sources for ASUS, because the firmware becomes more and more unmanagable. Compare this firmware with Linksys sources and you will see the difference. It's like a nightmare.
Also, just a thought why ASUS does not release the sources - they does not have them! The guy, who makes them firmwares do that by "hands". And this is really frustarting.
