This might seem like a dumb question, but is there any way to specify the port speed and duplex mode for the WAN and LAN interfaces on the WRT32X?
I would like to tie my WAN port and one of my LAN ports to 1Gbps/FD, rather than auto-negotiate.
Can this be done via script (I'm not a Linux guy)?
I understand that the standard Linux command to do this is "ethtool", but is there an equivalent in DD-WRT?
Before anyone asks why, I have noticed that, depending upon how the devices are powered up, my Virgin Super Hub 3 (in modem mode) does not always deliver 200Mbps through my WRT32X. A subesquent reboot of just the SH3 (not the WTR32X) always restores (and maintains) the full 200Mbps service. This is over both LAN and WiFi connected links.
The only way that I can explain this is if the WAN port has auto-negotiated to 100Mbps rather than 1Gbps. The inter-connect cable is fine BTW. _________________ Linksys WRT32X v1 - r45677
