Hi Kong,

Both have the same amount of flash memory: 8 MB

See: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Supported_Devices#Cisco_Linksys_.28Wirel...

v2 uses a faster Broadcom (480Mhz vs. 300Mhz)

Ah you are right, the 160N has 4MB, but it looks like the 610Nv1 requires a kernel 2.4, my build is a 2.6.

610Nv2 REQUIRES kernel 2.6 (because of newer Broadcom).

610Nv1 works with both kernels (dd-wrt has 2.4 and 2.6 kernel firmwares for v1). See http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Linksys_WRT610N#LINUX_KERNEL_2.6_BUILDS

The resource says, that broadcom_K26 builds work, if that's the case my build should work with it.
But since you are probably the first one that tries it on the v1 make sure you know how to debrick your router before you start flashing.
