I always loved Tomato; ran it on my 54GLs which I still have (though one is pre-L branding). I had a Cisco E3000 that I tried to love; bought it because it supported DD-WRT so once I got sick of the Cisco firmware I tried DD-WRT. It seemed like an endless headache and never worked quite right, so I flashed back to the stock Cisco stuff; I realized the stock OS supported everything I needed anyway, and was more stable.
I wish consumer stuff had more cool graphs and the like. |

The E3000 is based on a Broadcom SoC without free drivers. That's always a bad sign for third party support. Basically you are limited to some ancient kernel which may or may not be running stable. I know the E3000 and DD-WRT on it is indeed a mess.
"Supported" with proprietary drivers often means nothing more than that it boots somehow. The same goes for the new Linksys models with "official" OpenWRT support. The wifi isn't stable at all.
