Seems pretty obvious to me that D-link is using linux in rev B1 hardware. Its not big secret thou if i have read right from https://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?pid=89964 .

 So my question goes for: why D-link is sticking with this shareport-utility. Even the B1 hardware has common usb-port for sure, which can be controlled by linux and therefore there would be more simple way to get things like printer working with it over network. Also ssh-server support would not be too big investment. right? 

And why im not so fully changing to openwrt or dd-wrt is that the patches are not in stable tree yet and i think that i can be pretty happy with the current web-ui of dlink and dont have much of time to setup my router for openwrt.

First post btw

Are there any place for request features for coming firmware releases ? It cant be that big deal to add p910nd and saned daemon running as an option. Took peak from ther GPL-sourcecode for the firmware and it had this wcn-daemon running so why not add as on option support for linux too :\. Unless they are get paid by microsoft to not add any support for linux which is as i think forbidden act of competition. Or is it the license agreement of wcn which forbids them adding any additional features that could compete their software at the same time ?

Cant just see why WCN would be better solution over opensource equivalent, specially because it narrows the range of supported oses.

I completely agree.

What?  This is the dumbest thing ever.  When I bought it, I assumed that it worked.  Glad I still have my receipt!
