Myabe I did not explain this clearly before. To use your own reference...
When the SSH terminal asks for your user, please enter [Myname] (same user name as the Web GUI user name), when it asks you for a password, please enter [Mypassword] (same password as the Web GUI password).
I hope this is a simple one to solve.
I have a vanila installation of DD-WRT Kong Mod 18010M with only the GUI Username changed to [Myname], GUI Password changed to [Mypassword] and the router's Local IP Address set to 10.88.0.1.
I have enabled SSH with password login. I then use putty.exe (on Win XP) to SSH access the router on 10.88.0.1. I am then asked for a login name and password.
What login name and password do I use to access my router via SSH?

Not quite right.
I found that the login name must be [root] and the password is [MyPassword] (i.e., the password I use to log into the router's GUI).
Now I have SSH access!

That goes to show me... since I never use a different username, I did not know that... I assumed and you know what happened. :)
Thanks for sharing the experience.
