Router - Bufallo WHR-G300N
2 wired PCs cannot ping each other, though the router has dhcp leases for each. One is a Linux machine, the other is dual boot Linux/Windows 7.
A Linux Wireless laptop can ping both and be pinged from both.
I have another Bufallo (same model) with its default firmware. When I replace the DD-WRT version, all machines can ping each other.
Any ideas?
Thx in advance

As already discussed it's a bug in 18777 firmware.

OK, obviously my search was not couched in the correct terms.
Can you tell me the defect number, then I can track its resolution?
When I get a moment I'll put the DD-WRT unit back in and check the version number

I have exactly the same problem with my buffalo_whr_g300nv2.
Wired connection can't ping any client else "destination host unreachable",
but wireless can ping all the clients.
It started from 03-19-12-r18777, and remains after upgrading to 06-08-12-r19342.

After so many people have confirmed the same problem. I hope that devs will finally pay attention to that issue which exists for over half a year now. (Last version which working lan was 18026 for me)

same here on g300nv2
using version 24461
That will be great if it can be fixed.

I am quite curious about the defect number, but it is deleted? I have been trying to tackle this problem for a while.
And I also find that it is reproducible on TL-WR741ND v1 using version 24461.
I think it is highly possible that other Atheros board also have this problem.
Can anyone know something about it leave a messages?

I have almost the same hardware: TL-WR741ND but v4, I just installed fw version 24461 and used a fix from page
http://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=152738&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=30
to get wired computers on LAN to communicate.
Resume is:
Open router web interface, switch to panel "Administration" and "Commands" page (something like http://192.168.0.1/Diagnostics.asp ).
Enter commands:
Code: swconfig dev eth1 set enable_vlan 1
swconfig dev eth1 set apply
Press button "Run commands" and if everything is fine press button "Save Startup" to make it permanent.
All the best
