It has been upgraded to a newer firmware provided from linksys here (select version 1.0 to view downloadable files).
Could this upgrade be a problem for installing DD-WRT? Trying to install the dd-wrt.v24minigeneric.bin for WRT160Nv1 (form this page on dd-wrt.com ) from web GUI every kind of browser give me the following error: Upgrade file is not the correct type or version for this device. Upgrade failed.
Please select the correct file and try again. I tried many different browsers and after different range of seconds (from a couple with firefox or a minute with opera) but the error stills. Is the dd-wrt firmware wrong for my router?

Your WAG160N is a Wireless-N router & an ADSL2+ modem. The WRT160N is just a Wireless-N router.

WAG160N is very poor on routing options and network services.probably I buy somthing not suitable for my needs.

Don't care about the lack of ADSL support on dd-wrt. Would rather use it as a AP on dd-wrt than a ADSL modem on the stock version.
