Hi Dan --
No, open-mesh only works on Accton-chipset routers.  OpenWRT-compatible
Linksys routers use the Broadcom chipset.

That said, I think it'd be cool to write some code that would allow Linksys
routers to be managed & monitored through the open-mesh dashboard.  I
haven't put much thought into it yet, but it'd be possible, if a little
kludgy.
