DD-WRT firmware

Can someone tell me how to get my router setup with DD-WRT? 

Thank you

    Michael I'm sorry I came here to ask about something I should have gone to the other sites to ask. It's that I had just gotten the R9000 and wanted to flash it. After reading at more than one site I could brick the router I decided to forget it. Not worth it.

    Thanks and I'm gone for this topic.

    There are a few people here who use these alternatives to the official firmware, but your best bet is to try the places where they cover different firmware.

     

    You aren't likely to get much help on an official Netgear forum. It does not support third party firmware.

      Thanks,

      Micheal. I really don't know what, or why my VPN needs it anyway.

        Does that mean that your question is really about the VPN?

         

        If so, you would do better to ask about that.

         

        Tell people what it is and you might get useful advice.
