I upgraded my WRT54G v3 from DD-WRT v23 SP2 to v24, but the router stopped assigning its own DHCP information whenever it was connected to either my cable modem or another router (both assign IP via DHCP). Instead, the WRT54G would pass through the IP assignment from the other router (but works as expected when not connected to it).
I can't even get an IP address assigned on its WAN port.
I tried cloning the MAC address of my computer (which will work when directly connected to the modem), but that didn't help.
Resetting the router to factory defaults didn't help either.
The only way I found to get the WRT54G to work as I want it is to re-flash v23 back onto it.
IPv6 still as broken as in the release candidates. Is v24 even supposed to support IPv6?
GUI note: under "Services" there is an "Undefined" tab pointing to AnchorFree.asp, and under "Services/Services" there is an "Undefined" radio button in enabled state.
Too bad, RADIUS authentication still not working. I use the std version. It works fine with v23, but v24 doesn't even try to contact the RADIUS server.

Am I missing something ?
Yeap... you are... It depends of connecting client... I have solved it by deleting SSID profile on client part and off/on WiFi adapter... all works fine with it. (but may be this is not your case)
Well, the only thing that changed is the version of my DD-WRT firmware, and it worked very well with the previous version. I tend to think that the upgrade is in cause. The clients did not change.
But there is more : if I try to view the list of the active processes with v23, I can see "wrt-radauth" running. No trace of it on v24.
So I really don't think the clients configuration is in cause.

Hmm, after all, should I update my Asus WL-500g Premium from DD-WRT v23 SP2 (09/15/06) std to the "Stable" v24? I remember the last time I tried a v24 RC (The last one if I'm not wrong), it bricked my router just because of a webcam compatible firmware or whatever, I updated the firmware some times to try some tools to use usb but I never been able to use any storage disks, Webcam did work for me and it was really funny but no hdd ...
I apreciate v23 but I actually don't have the power led on, it blinks a couple of times when I start the router but when it's started, I only have the air, lan and wan leds working, that's anoying .
I like v23 but is there any GREAT improvements in v24 and by the way, I know there is a Mega_Generic bin that requier a 8mb flash but is it safe and worthy enough?
Do I have to do anything before I update like cleaning cache or anything?
Sorry if there are so many questions but after buying a second router, I just don't want to put some more $ in (If I'm in the wrong place, move me! ) Thanks in advance!

Port Forwarding in new v24 on WRT54GL wont accept entries like
Application Start End Protocol IP Address Enable

On apply or save the interface changes the Start and end point. It's not an display problem. Forwarding is not working than!
Aww, it looks like you are on port range forwarding page... There you forward, in your example, ports 22 to 1022 to IP xx.xx.xx.xx
Use normal port forwarding page to set individual port forwards... There you can forward port 1022 to port 22...
Yes you're totally right. The order of the tabs for "port range forwarding" and "port forwarding" have changed from v23 sp1 to v24, so I was confused the first time.
But there is another problem. How do I get DDNS working with Dyndns.org? I didn't manage to get this working

DynDNS is working for me. What comes up in the Status area?
Hi Paul,
that's good news! Right now I'm at work so I can't tell you the error message word by word. But If I remember correctly it told me that I should check username, password and hostname - something went wrong.
How do you configured Dyndns? Did you took the predefined setting or did you took a Custom configuration?
