Since the second half of 2010 the WHR-HP-G300N ships with DD-WRT installed by default. Older versions of the router are the same specifications and allow the DD-WRT firmware to be installed from the buffalo website/FTP server

Buffalo now provide an official DD-WRT build direct from their own FTP site.

Acoring to Buffalo documentation the new DD-WRT firmware is installed by default on the WHR-HP-G300N however mine had the original firmware

The DD-WRT firmware is named as the "Pro" firmware and the default is named "User Friendly" firmware

To download the firmware grab the zip file from ftp://whr-hp-g300n:whr-hp-g300n@83.244.133.35/

Extract the firmware from the zip and use the web based firmware upgrade interface as usual to upgrade to the "Pro" DD-WRT firmware from the stock "User Friendly" firmware
