Hi,

 I went to go and download the source for the router off of netgear's site. at http://kbserver.netgear.com/products/WGR614L.asp and I keep getting is is unavaliable, this is the same link refrered to in the coumentation on this site and is the dirrect link for support of of netgear's site. http://www.netgear.com/Products/RoutersandGateways/GWirelessRouters/WGR614L.aspx Are they not making it avaliable anymore? Is there a way to add the source to this site? 

Thanks 

~ Jeff

Looks to me like they have a website problem. I doubt it is a support problem, but you may find you info on the Projects page.

Tried that but it has compiled source, and mainly spotty documentation. I have sent in an e-mail through contact us to see why. Also don't call netgear the indian guys have no clue about this.

my guess is that wgr614l is a renamed/rebranded/repackaged netgear's little known wgr614v8 router. Possibly there is a goof up somewhere in netgear website in doing that. both wgr614v8 and wgr614l has the same fcc-id (PY30600057).  So you can download the wgr614v8 code and work with it.

Thought of that too, if you look here:

You have the other site, but it just has the firmware (precompiled) and documantation. If there is a link to the source code to download I am not seeing it.

We've got the source code posted on the site in the downloads section.

You can access it here!

Thanks, Pete
