[erik_bies]

It seems that Asus released the source to yet another stream of firmwares.
It is listed under the WL500g, altough during download it seems it is from the wl300g

Just downloaded it.
Makefile says it can build these images:

images:
	make images-WL500gx
	make images-WL500g
	make images-WL500b
	make images-WL500bv2
	make images-WL300g
	#make images-WL331g
	#make images-WL331gl
	#make images-WL500gl
	#make images-WL500bl

Now it's up to Oleg and Antiloop to see if there are (major )improvements

Well, now it's time to ASUS to release official 1.9.2.6 firmware with the list of changes...
At the moment I've checked et driver and a workaround for wan port dies issue. It's ugly, they just reinitialize iface if there are no packets received during some time after transmit... This could lead to missed packets with unidirectional udp traffic...

Well, as long as they don't publish it shouting they fixed the WAN die problem...

Firmware seems to be available now ;-)

Well, ASUS still playing games with GPL... 1.9.2.7 binary vs 1.9.2.6 sources...

Does this source code include the recently announced features?
Since they announced the new features a week ago, shouldn't there be a corresponding firmware somewhere?
There's a recent firmware released for the 500gx, but it is rev. 1080201...
