Fedora users might be more interested in supporting OpenWRT in preference
to DDWRT because they are a more open project. (OpenWRT has a nice build
system. I have used it  to build images on i686 for the MIPS processors
commonly used in inexpensive routers. It builds the appropriate cross compiler
tool for you.)

If you want to use open firmware, be aware that the open firmware for
broadcom chips doesn't support hardware encryption yet and if you need that
you will need to use proprietary firmware that isn't freely redistributable.
