+If running a router behind a router, don't forget to set different subnets! Eg,
+if the "upstream" router is at 192.168.1.1, then downstream routers should be
+at 192.168.2.1 (or similar).
+
+To get lsusb and lspci, install the usbutils and pciutils packages.
+
+To bring up new adapters (eg, USB or miniPCI), process is to search
+wikidevi.com to find the drivers which support either the exact device or
+chipset, then update opkg and grep output of "opkg list" for the OpenWRT kernal
+package for those drivers.
+
+Use the ``sysupgrade`` images when upgrading an existing OpenWrt-based
+installation, either via the LuCI web interface or the command line (wget). Use
+the ``factory`` image when installing OpenWrt through the original firmware's
+web interface or using the tftp netboot method.
