This DD-WRT app uses the web interface of your DD-WRT enabled router, so please make sure you have this enabled. Accessing your router remotely (away from the local network) requires you to know the WAN IP address and port of your network OR to have a DDNS address setup that forwards to your network. (You can set up DNS forwarding at www.dyn.com) DD-WRT has many different versions, so if you have any problems accessing any data please get in touch using the Feedback button so we can look at adding more support.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: DD at 4.2 against QuRouter's 3.0. DD also leads on ratings volume (324 vs 2) and update cadence (monthly vs every 2 months). QuRouter's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 9) and review sentiment (67% vs 44%). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DD sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $2.49 per 3 months. QuRouter asks for nothing beyond the download.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

DD holds the better App Store score, 4.2 against 3.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DD has 324 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 44% of DD's written reviews are positive against 67% of QuRouter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

DD ships an update monthly, QuRouter every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 8, 2026 and September 17, 2026 respectively.
