Intro
There are two models of the Linksys WRT1900: AC and ACS. Each of these comes in two versions, v.1 and v.2 All four of these are supported by DD-WRT. The Linksys WRT1200AC is very similar but only has two antennas instead of 4.
The router that I am using to test and setup is the WRT1900AC v1. These instructions will probably also apply to the other versions, but it's not guaranteed.
