Posted: Wed Jan 16, 2008 20:27 Post subject: DD-WRT with multiple WAN IP addresses
Simply said: I ordered Comcast business class internet and got 5 static IP addresses with the service. The problem is that I want to run everything through my Linksys WRT350N router. That means all 5 IPs trough the single WAN port.
I figured the solution is to create extra VLANs, assign them with one of the 5 IPs each and configure them similar to VLAN2 is right now. Then I would use IP tables to forward ports from some of my internal servers to the specific VLANs.
Does this sound doable? Looks like the web GUI will be more or less useless for this. How come I can't create VLAN3 using vconfig command?
I've been trying to figure out how to accomplish that for quite a while now with no luck. I and a few others have asked for help in this forum and got no response at all. Either no one knows how to do it or they think it is so obvious that to respond is beneath them.
It would be wonderful if you could just enter multiple external IP addresses via the gui, rather than having to script 30 plus lines of code to do it.

It's not that we won't care, but there is the fact this has been discussed before, and there also are some good threads about how to achieve it by SSH and scripts... Also we know GUI would be superb, but no point to repeat it all over the forum, developers do know about the eager for this too...
