The orig firmware is based on openwrt.
Initial flashing instruction
For initial flashing just flash the appropriate DD-WRT overtake image file (WW (Worldwide), NA (North America)) though the web interface. After the reboot DD-WRT will answer at 192.168.1.1. Future upgrades are done though the GUI to the latest builds.
As of 20140119 you can only install DD-WRT if your Netgear fw version is < 1.1.2.10 (ticket). Netgear decided to limit the orif fw size, so you will have to downgrade orig firmware to be able to flash to DD-WRT.
The latest working DD-WRT version is 20120319 build 18777 (ticket) and current webflash images are to big for flashing (ticket)!
