Hi guys,

somebody gave me a cg3100l of netgear and I'd like to know how to use it with openwrt ; unfortunately, I never did any coding, just few linux configs.
I saw that one :
https://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GPL/CG3100L_V5.5.4_EU_V1.0.4_Linux_src.zip
but I don't know at all how to use it..

I thank you vm

Broadcom is often a dead end, openwrt wise.

well, which image of openwrt might be working on that hardware?
it's for a simple installation

none ? except perhaps for the one supplied by the manufacturer.
