	<nowiki>**</nowiki>Note: The original architecture for the Linksys routers ([https://openwrt.org/toh/linksys/linksys_wrt1900ac WRT1900AC]) was built for the VFPv3 FPU as the predecessor to the WRT1900ACS and WRT3200ACM was the WRT1900AC whose CPU only supported VFPv3 (see this [https://www.mail-archive.com/openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org/msg43813.html note]). However, Marvell added SIMD / Neon FPU support for the WRT1900ASC and WRT3200ACM CPUs. Use the Neon Packages as they will provide better performance in some instances. The WRT1900ACS and WRT3200ACM support all of the various Packages offered by OpenWRT. By default OpenWRT uses the VFPv3-D16 Packages.		<nowiki>**</nowiki>Note: The original architecture for the Linksys routers ([https://openwrt.org/toh/linksys/linksys_wrt1900ac WRT1900AC]) was built for the VFPv3 FPU as the predecessor to the WRT1900ACS and WRT3200ACM was the WRT1900AC whose CPU only supported VFPv3 (see this [https://www.mail-archive.com/openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org/msg43813.html note]).

	<nowiki>***</nowiki>Note: Keep in mind, with space reserved by the SoC (Sytem on a Chip), Multiple Flash Partitions, OpenWRT File System, Firmware, etc. out of that 128 MB of storage space, only about 25 MB will be available for the AC and ACS and more than double that for the ACM. After some research, its seems possible to access the "non active" partition, but because of the nice way OpenWRT makes a usable file system read / write, it wouldn't be easy to make it accessible in the same convenient manner. Can anyone say USB 3.0 Flash Drive?		<nowiki>***</nowiki>Note: Keep in mind, with space reserved by Linksys on the SoC (Sytem on a Chip), Multiple Flash Partitions, OpenWRT File System, Firmware, etc. out of that 128 MB of storage space, only about 25 MB will be available for the AC and ACS and more than double that for the ACM.
