  • easy htb/tc configurator or script generator (nbd from openwrt works on it)
  • Put some features to Separate Lan and WLan over web interface
  • Custom names associated with MAC addresses on MAC Filter (default to first host name if no value is specified)
  • Fix for "MS SQL" L7 filter (The space keeps it from properly being added or displayed in the web interface)
  • more "Blocked Services" (at least 10). This was submitted a few times.
  • Support for the Yi.org dynamic IP service (wget -q -O /dev/null --http-user="DOMAINNAME" --http-passwd="PASSWORD" "http://www.yi.org/bin/dyndns.fcgi?ipaddr=IPADDRESS")
  • VRRP
  • Dynamic HTTP filtering using a blacklist or possibly a whitelist
  • Spanning port/Monitor port
  • Auto Upgrade Feature
  • Built in Radius server with GUI frontend
  • Ability to customize the firmware with a GUI, Hence removing features you dont need.. The GUI would be alot easier to use than recompiling the firmware every time.
  • Modular services and features: Make services like Kai a module that would be uploaded to the jffs partition if someone needed to use it. Reduce the avaliable "themes" in order to save space, and allow people to upload news ones to the jffs parition as needed.
  • To increase revenues, create services like "Spam", "Virus" and "Content" filtering that would rely on a central server (Since the wrt54g doesnt have the power to do such things), and charge a reasonable fee to use them (Essentially the wrt54g would redirect traffic through your servers depending on type of service). Especially web filtering (Such as p0rn etc.) Firewalls capable of doing this cost over 300$ and charge 100$ a year to filter. Its nothing more than a list of IP addresses that are used to lookup and block traffic depending on their destination.
  • New WRT54G/S will no longer be compatible, why not sell equivilant hardware capable of performing like the WRT54G/S. Market it at schools and end users emphasizing the Spam, Virus and Content filtering features. (And make it plug and play. Too many linux distributions require the user to be knowledgable, and most home users are not).
  • Replace simple 'Status/Wireless/Survey' with Wiviz (or make it an option).
  • Timetable for switching on/off the WLAN function (for example during the night or during work hours).
