Word of warning, DD-WRT has about a bazillion different releases. The one given by the compatibility database page on the website, while it is often the newest build/version, it's typically NOT the ideal one to install. Find the peacock announcement for the chipset in your router and also the specific page for your router, between the two, will list the most current known good revision, which is typically much older than what is listed on the database page.
Also, micro, mini, standard, mega, etc. - The core features are all the same, most installations are fine with just mini or standard. The larger builds like mega and (lord) humongous just add more business level VOIP, VPN and linking etc features that most people won't need.
