FWIW I got OpenWRT running on the n810, a 3.3.8 kernel--a
guy named Michael Buesch did the original work, and I had to
do a bunch of cleanup on bit rot which had set in. I don't have time
to take it farther right now, but it's probably the most modern starting
point you could find for the n810 platform.
