I'd just like to point out a guide im working on at openwrt wiki pointing out how i got it to fit on only 10mb free flash space (i hope to reduce this).

I got the install size of pywws & python down to 5Mb !! and updated my guide per that.
Also here is my wuderground page: http://www.wunderground.com/personal-weather-station/dashboard?ID=INEWSOUT968

Thanks for that. I lost interest in OpenWRT a few years ago when I got
my first Raspberry Pi, which is now my preferred low power computing
platform. I'd also "bricked" another Asus router and was having problems
with their power supplies.

Good to see that OpenWRT is still alive and well though.

I originally had ordered a Pi for the job but then found out it might be possible to do it with a router, so a cancelled the Pi order and did it with a router to make one less device, as the router is on 24/7 anyway for internet.
