I just recently switched my router from DD-WRT to OpenWRT.  Recently, my router (which I was running DD-WRT on) started to act like it's starting to fail, as it started to occasionally disconnect from the outside internet, and power cycling the rouer seemed tofix that.  Before buying a new router, I thought I'd try switching it to OpenWRT, and so far it seems more stable.  I'll see how long it lasts.  I hadn't used OpenWRT before, but it seems fairly nice.
