= OpenWRT on a VM =
For some development, it might be easier to run OpenWRT on a virtual machine. This keeps you from having to worry about a bunch of wires and carrying around a router everywhere and mostly keeps you from having to deal with flashing and some other more unpleasant stuffs.
OpenWRT has a page on how to setup a VM on virtualbox:
[http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/virtualbox OpenWRT Virtualbox HowTo]
This page has some helpful hints, especially on setting up network configurations:

I've uploaded an already setup VM with a basic dev environment here:

The readme page should have some details on how to set it up and work around some issues.
