Hi, I want to change the way in which my tplink (wr941nd or wr1043nd router) manages each tcp connection.
For this I want to change the firmware and/or atheros card driver but I dont know how.
Can someone explain me the steps i need to follow to get the sourcecode, general guidelines to modify it and compile it to get my own new firmware version?

Thanks in advance!

Step 1: Read carefully through the documentation at www.openwrt.org
Step 2: Eventually step over the link that gets you to dev.openwrt.org => Read that carefully, as well
Step 3: Get information on topics which occur to be necessary while following Step 1 and Step 2.

The discussion might have continued from here.
