i believe klseet have done a good guideline for this

and also

u may want save the page to your local harddrive , as the site sometime got limited bandwitdh due to too many access.

but you need to becareful when you use openwrt, read the step few times before you apply, because i have bricked 2 941ND before because my itchy hand to disturb some setting that i dont know.

but openwrt is very flexible and it is worth to spend some time to learn it.

yes, but i plan to replace with 1043nd . hopefully, the stock will available soon.

you can use firmware from blindbox which just need to enter your user name and password
or if you use OpenWrt standard image, you can follow https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=49570563

i will said yes, because it support VLAN configure just like 1043 ND i think you can follow the same configuration
as in https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=49570563

but i dont think is a good idea, as dlink 825 cost u 340RM and 1043nd only 150, do you want to burn the money for something similar?

first thing you should try is to reset your router back to factory default

login to you webgui, goto system tools/factory defaults and click restore.

sound like you need to setup your WEP key, have you check wep key?

first you need to login to 192.168.1.1
then you go to wireless/wireless security
then select WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK
you can leave version and Encryption as "automatic"

you can enter your PSK password, should 8 to 63 character, you may need to reboot your router once you are done.

if you are using windows 7, search from internet with "Manage Wireless Networks" to guide you how to setup wireless connection with windows 7.

worse thing u will brick your router.But if you follow step from http://klseet.com/index.php?option=com_con...id=98&Itemid=92

nothing will go wrong. But if you try something extra(just like me who bricked 2 of it ), then you have to be careful to know what you try to do.
