Hi, I already solved my own problem, but the DD-WRT Wiki could use an edit. If it worked like a normal Wiki I would gladly do it myself but the DD-WRT Wiki is not a Wiki that Anybody can edit, I've come to learn.
The issue described at https://forum.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=277707 where ethernet ports do not work on E1200v2 also affects E1200v1. The warning and solution that hoot_spoot posted to the E1200v2 Wiki page solved the problem for me on my E1200v1 and I could have saved a lot of trouble if this information was copied over to the E1200v1 Wiki page. (The instructions could use an update as the Networking screen has changed since it was made, but I figured it out anyway.) _________________ Modem: SB6121, Comcast Blast 75/10.

It would help to know on which firmware version this is (still?) broken. Current release is 51275.

I confirmed with 51275 the extra steps were still necessary to restore ethernet. _________________ Modem: SB6121, Comcast Blast 75/10.

I'm not really looking to go down the fork rabbit hole. The main DD-WRT works fine with the workaround. Can somebody add this note to the wiki? _________________ Modem: SB6121, Comcast Blast 75/10.

The linked thread pages given to you were from the thread linked in the wiki which had zero discussion of the LAN port issue. Anyhow, wiki's been updated to add the section regarding the bug and links referencing this thread and the v2 thread you provided.
For future reference, neither Eko nor Fractal are active here any longer, there are no "forks" save and except for those which belong to those actively contributing to development and if anything, "Community Builds", and those "releases" are not advertised in separate threads on this forum. Also, if it hadn't been for those two, your router would probably be running Fresh Tomato as they (along with BrainSlayer and a few others) were responsible for a LOT of the early MIPSR2 Broadcom devices (especially Linksys E-series) getting support, if I am not mistaken. _________________ "Life is but a fleeting moment, a vapor that vanishes quickly; All is vanity"
