It isn't that easy. Both ddwrt and openwrt are very optimistic about calling something 'working'. Fully working might mean: Only slow wifi and 100 mb ethernet, No use of most hardware acceleration.

These projects are great, but against the background of 100s of new crappy devices every year, nothing can ever be decently finished. Hardware is simply not sold anymore before any device fully matures, and vendors are very stingy with firmware.
