comment:6 follow-up: ↓ 7 Changed 12 months ago by BrainSlayer
i have that driver. but i'm not allowed to release it yet. it also makes no sense to integrate it now since it only is important for 802.11ac support
comment:7 in reply to: ↑ 6 Changed 12 months ago by fractal
Sounds good,
I have the WZR-D1800H 802.11ac router with serial if you need testing. Let me know if I can be of help.

i have a WZR-D1800H too since january and dd-wrt does already run on it for sure

- Resolution set to invalid
- Status changed from new to closed

That is a quite old release note fractal, don't confuse the package version number with the driver version. dd-wrt is currently using wl version 5.100.127 and latest wl driver that I am aware of is 5.100.138 which is a few month old.
