First if all thanks to the developer(s) for an excellent piece of software. I had not realised my F5D7130 could be enhanced like the Linksys products until I saw the recent story about dd-wrt on Boing-boing. (Yes. I have donated)

It has turned a rather disappointing piece of kit into something really nice.

The only issue I have is working out how to assign the single LAN port as the WAN interface so I can start using the access restriction function.

I have seen the thread at
http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=53 but whenever I write anything to nvram after commit and reboot the old values are still there.

I have tried :-
Code:
nvram set vlan0ports="5*"
nvram set vlan1ports="0 1 2 3 4 5"
commit
reboot


I am using dd-wrt.v23-sp1-micro

Any advice would be appreciated.

First: 7130 does'nt use vlans (4702 cpu)
2nd: be sure you can connect wirelessly, or you can lock yourself out
3rd: NEVER disable wireless or forget the key.

OK THIS IS ONLY EXAMPLE, CHECK VALUES YOURSELF!!!

port as LAN port
Code:
et0phyaddr=0
et0mdcport=0
et1phyaddr=30
et1mdcport=1
nvram commit
reboot

port as WAN port
Code:
et0phyaddr=30
et0mdcport=1
et1phyaddr=0
et1mdcport=0
nvram commit
reboot

Did you get the idea?

Thanks for the suggestion.

Unfortunately it did not help. The 7130 carried on working in the same way.

I also tried transposing et0 and et1 in the lan_hwnames and wan_hwname parameters and that made no difference either.

I also tried with "Assign WAN Port to Switch" in Basic setup both selected and deselected - no difference.

BTW: The CPU is BCM4710 rev 0 if that makes any difference.

No, it's just variant of 4702 minus HPNA interface. The same.

I forgot the nvram set:

port as LAN port
Code:
nvram set et0phyaddr=0
nvram set et0mdcport=0
nvram set et1phyaddr=30
nvram set et1mdcport=1
nvram commit
reboot

port as WAN port
Code:
nvram set et0phyaddr=30
nvram set et0mdcport=1
nvram set et1phyaddr=0
nvram set et1mdcport=0
nvram commit
reboot

I had realised that and used the correct syntax

Could it be because I am using the 'micro' version that setting these parameters does not alter the behaviour?

Thanks

Micro is OK.
Hmm, you can also try the
Code:
nvram set wan_ifname=eth0
nvram set wan_ifnames=eth0

OK. That does something. I did

Code:
~ # nvram set lan_ifnames=eth2
~ # nvram set wan_ifnames=eth0
~ # nvram set wan_ifname=eth0
~ # nvram commit
nvram_commit(): start
nvram_commit(): end
~ # reboot

(by default lan_ifnames=eth0 eth2 )


Afterwards I could not access the 7130 either via the LAN or wireless and had to do a hard reset to recover.

I tried with and without the other parameters suggested, and with and without a static WAN port defined.

There are still some more combinations I could try but I'll have to wait until later to try them.

Thanks for the help.
