You can find the name of the router (Model: WNR3500Lv2) at the front side (same side where you can find the power port) of the router.
help: how to distinguish 3500L V1 or V2
In the router status, it shows below message:
hardware WNR3500L
firmware V1.2.2.44_35.0.53NA
so it is 3500L V1 or 3500L V2?
thanks

As Tathagata said, I only found WNR3500L at the front side, so now I can confirm my router is version V1, thanks to Tathagata.
And I think this kind of topic should be set to top, for I found serveral newbee like me ask this question. So it should set to top or wirte in FAQ.
Thanks.

Good to know that you are able to recognise your router.
Hope, the following two pictures will provide more information to the newbee,

Alas, not necessarily. Ordered yesterday, arrived today and it's a v1. Not a big deal, I suppose it will do just fine.

Main difference between V1 and V2 is memory capacity. Otherwise they are quite similar.

I have the Sam Knows supplied wnr3500u/wnr3500l, apparently v1, although it has the n300 label next to the model # as in the second picture.
Do you know, does this have special firmware for their program or can I use Tomato or something similar?
Current firmware version is V1.2.2.26_33.0.28SK
Thanks!

No.
It's been a while since I have been able to look at this problem, and I've decided to stick with the OEM for now. Also, I don't have a serial port so I don't have a simple method of getting the boot log as requested.

Thanks!
I'll give this a shot later and post back here with success. If I have problems, I'll start a new thread.
And to answer an earlier question, I do have the wnr3500L v1.
