Hi there,
I have a Raspberry Pi Zero which I have configured to use ethernet over USB. When I connect it to my other Linux devices, a usb0 interface appears on the host which I can use to communicate with the Pi. However this does not appear in DD-WRT when I connect the Pi to it. What is required to make the usb0 interface appear in DD-WRT so I can communicate with the Raspberry Pi Zero? Thank you.
You need an ethernet over USB driver on the dd-wrt side, probably cdc_ether which is a kernel module and therefore has to be built at the same time as the kernel. It is normally not included in dd-wrt in order to save flash space.
You don't need to enable USBIP, that is the opposite of what you want to do.
It transports a physical USB device from one computer to another over an ethernet connection. _________________ Kernel panic: Aiee, killing interrupt handler!

Okay cool, thanks for the info. Kernel modules are an aspect of Linux I'm not super familiar with. Is this something that can be added to an existing setup, or do I need to build my own kernel manually? Any instructions on how to do this?
