The WNDRMAC is a WNDR3700v2 (64MB RAM, 16MB flash) in a white case. The
WNDRMACv2 is a WNDR3800 (128MB RAM, 16MB flash) in a WNDRMAC case.
The WNDRMAC case doesn't have "holes" or labels for the 2.4GHz LED or
switch ports 2-4. The stock firmware uses a single LED (in the 5GHz
position) to indicate the status of both radios, and a single LED (in the
switch port 1 position) to indicate the status of all LAN ports. The
"missing" LEDs are present on the board, and easily shine through the
case. Unlike the stock firmware, OpenWrt will use these "hidden" LEDs.
I've tested the WNDRMACv2 image. I don't have a v1 WNDRMAC, but assume
that this is sufficient to build a fully-functional image.

Factory images for WNDR3700v2 and WNDR3800 should contain these model IDs
for the device: field in their DNI tags, not WNDR3700.
This regressed in r29434, which redid WNDR3x00 model detection. The sixth
parameter to Image/Build/Netgear is only used as the -B argument to
mkdniimg, which is used to set the device: field. In r29434, this was
erroneously changed to be WNDR3700 for all models. The tools to flash
factory images (U-Boot's TFTP server and the factory software's upgrade
utility) may refuse to honor images with incorrect device: fields in their
DNI tags.

Detect the model name for /tmp/sysinfo/model based on 10 bytes at offset
56 in the art (caldata) mtd partition.
r29434 redid WNDR3x00 model detection, attempting to distinguish between
WNDR3700v2 and WNDR3800 by checking MemTotal in /proc/meminfo. However, it
contained a bug: it put the awk inside a $(...), with the result that all
WNDR3700v2 and WNDR3800 models would be reported as WNDR3800. This patch
checks the model name stored in the art partition, as is done by U-Boot
shipping on the WNDR3800. It has the likely advantage of working with
future models based on the WNDR3700 board. It also will not mis-detect
units on which people install more memory.
I have tested this patch on WNDR3700 (v1), WNDR3700v2, and WNDR3800.
