DD WRT and Open WRT are Linux distributions for your router. Like other Linux distributions, they offers a built-in package manager that allows you to install packages from a software repository. They can be used for anything that an embedded Linux system can be used for, including functioning as an SSH server, VPN,  traffic-shaping system, or even a BitTorrent client.
 
 
 
Bring your old routers and we'll see if we can start running your own Distro's on them!
