So basically I have setup 2 networks. 1 guest and 1 private. The guest network is bridged to VLAN5 and the Private Wireless network is bridged to Vlan 1 Intermittently the Private wireless network will loose all connection to everything but the router interface. For example I can't reach any computers or internet on VLAN 1 but I can still get to router setup page. Also a computer that is plugged directly into a port on the router that is on VLAN1 does not lose access to VLAN1 but CANNOT access any of the wireless clients. So basically it looks like somehow the bridging of the wireless to VLAN 1 fails every so often. It usually resolves it self after about 1/2 an hour or a restart will help most the time.. I'm using latest version of DD-WRT Kong (Although it happend with previous versious as well) Any advice where to start diagnosing this issue?

I attempted to install the "install this firmware first" version of DD-WRT. I think I may have not let it sit long enough for the upgrade to succeed. I have been able to get both TFTP and USB serial console access working. Watching the console output when the router boots, its throwing a " Boot Program checksum is invalid" and then starting up TFTPd. When I send firmware via TFPD, my console outut says the file was received, followed by "Programming..." but then no additional output occurs. I suspect I'll need to run some additional commands via serial console, but I'm not sure precisely what to do. Ultimately I'm wanting to run Tomato USB on this device, but at the moment I'm not picky, just getting it to boot successfully is my first priority.<div><a href="http://www.myopenrouter.com/forum/thread/35438/-Boot-Program-checksum-is-invalid-Cannot-Boot/">[Read more]</div> Troubleshooting Thu, 02 Feb 2012 15:58:03 GMT Patrick Simonds http://www.myopenrouter.com/forum/thread/35438/-Boot-Program-checksum-is-invalid-Cannot-Boot/#discussion?src=forumtopic_rss http://www.myopenrouter.com/forum/thread/35438/-Boot-Program-checksum-is-invalid-Cannot-Boot/?src=forumtopic_rss http://www.myopenrouter.com/forum/thread/35408/Now-that-I-got-VPN-working-on-my-3500L-s/?src=forumtopic_rss I got a router to router VPN working with my two Netgear 3500L's It works great and I can ping everything from both networks.

Make sure your router support OpenVPN , and that is DD-WRT supported . Download the config and script files Go to the Commands on your router web interface ( Administration tab -&gt; Commands ). Copy/paste the entire content of the downloaded file to the Command Shell field Replace your@email.address and VPNPassword with your VPN username and password. Press Save Startup to save the datas to the router. On the Setup, Basic Setup tab, on the Network Address Server Settings (DHCP) , change the Static DNS 1 and Static DNS 2 to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 Reboot router ( Management tab -&gt; Reboot Router button) After reboot the router is ready to connect. Go to the Commands and type: /tmp/ibvpn/vpn start aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd (replace aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd with the server IP you want to connect.). Press Run Commands to connect. To disconnect type: /tmp/ibvpn/vpn stop TomatoUSB router seems to support OpenVPN also.

So now I have IPv6 setup on the router and it's working great from the router. I can ping IPv6 addresses and everything. My clients seem to be getting IPv6 addresses assigned, but I can't use IPv6 sites. ipv6-test.com says: Your IPv4 address on the public Internet appears to be *.*.*.* No IPv6 address detected [more info] When a publisher offers both IPv4 and IPv6, your browser appears to be happy to take the IPv4 site without delay. Connections to IPv6-only sites are timing out. Any web site that is IPv6 only, will appear to be down to you. Your DNS server (possibly run by your ISP) appears to have IPv6 Internet access. Now my ISP does not support IPv6 yet so the DNS is coming from the routers setup. Why can't my clients connect? I read something about IPv6 port forwarding, but I have no idea what to forward.

The main router is attached to the modem and a 1000Mb switch that connects my office equipment (file server, test systems etc..). The second router is connected to the first router via a stretch of CAT5 through the attic. The two routers have identical wireless setup on seperate channels (main on channel 1, second on channel 11). This allows me to roam freely through the house without a dropout. The second router is also set to pass all DHCP requests to the main router. Recently I setup my main router to support my IPV6 tunnel through Tunnel brokers. It works great, every machine in the house now has IPV6 automatically. Strangely though after setting up the tunnel my power LED has gone Amber and all my wireless clients only connect to the second router. The wireless is working according to the router. It sees other routers in the area, but it never shows a connected client. I'm running Kong's firmware which has always ran perfectly for me.
