I don't know about other but I let all at default except :

1. Change keep alive to Connect on Demand and set max idle time to 0 (always on/never disconnect)
2. Disable STP - I don't think we need this. Refer here: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/STP

I also would like to know that DNSMasq thingy. I read somewhere that using it can save some memory but can't remember where.

Maybe DD-WRT gurus can tell us more about other settings.

I want to confirm a situation here to see if I'm the only one who has this problem or not. Could you check your WAN IP address in the router and see if you get the correct IP address range that assigned to TMNET example, 60.xx, 219.xx etc etc. If you're assigned with correct IP, pls try to reboot (NOT power cycle) the router once and check the IP again.

My senario (WRT54GL v1.1, DD-WRT v23 SP2 (09/15/06) std), every time after a reboot I'll get a wrong IP address and wrong Gateway IP assigned to me. Do you guys ever get 224.239.174.42 as your WAN IP and Gateway IP?

Online test will show that I have a usual TMnet IP (60.53.xx.xx) but in the router status page both my IP and Gateway are using the same IP address that is 224.239.174.42. The situation render my portforward useless. This can be fix by power cycle the router and if I do a reboot/save setting again, the wrong IP will be assign to me once more.

The only thing that fix this (except power cycle) is to enable rp-pppoe. Do you guys enable this option on the setup page?

Thanks.

Yep, I bought from mika too and flash it directly to standard.

Mine is working fine. Use Port Forwarding to forward single port and port range forwarding to forward a range port. I believe that you did Save Setting after adding a port? because add only will not save it. (this kind of obvious but some ppl might miss it).

Or check or WAN IP address, I think v23 SP2 has a PPPoE bug like my post above. I've flash mine to v23 SP3 and everything is fine so far.

You mean to set static client? Go to administration --> services, under static lease. You can tied ip address to mac address there. But it's weird if you can't see active client on Lan Status page. Maybe they are not using you router or not active during the time?

Don't believe this guy. Go ask on DD-WRT forum who he really is.

so, anybody sell kerbau brand online? Want to get one for testing.
