Hi,

I am new to DD-WRT. The reason I am getting into DD-WRT is because I want to use vlans to segregate the household teenagers LAN traffic from the rest. So I got hold of a second hand D-Link DIR-890L (rev A1) with dd-wrt preinstalled. Without reading too on the forum much I upgraded it to v3.0-r44483 (maybe that wasn't so clever).

Anyway. I have been reading the Switched Ports page (https://wiki.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Switched_Ports) and the Default Internal Device Network page (https://wiki.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Default_internal_device_network). And I wanted to start configuring the vlans and ports assignments when I noticed that my router has the default vlans: vlan2 and vlan1.. and then some vlan0 as well (I haven't touched this myself). Here are the nvram readouts:

[Per Yngve Berg]

vlan1ports=0 1 2 3 5*
vlan2ports=4 5u

This is normal for an AC router. Older routers did use vlan0.

The portXvlans variables only configures what you see in the GUI. They don't configure the switch. The numbering is from the layout of the WRT54G router.

Maybe just reset the router to defaults?

Although this is not serious you do not know what else is wrong

Thanks for your fast responses.

Good to know that the port.*vlans don't affect the behavior of the switch.

I think I will do a restore factory defaults using the WebUI. And if the funny nvram settings are still present I will tweak them by hand.

A quick follow-up on this, in case somebody in the future wondered how it went.

I performed a restore to factory defaults using the WebUI (Administration -> Factory Defaults).
When the router came back online I configured the password and enabled SSH as the very first thing, and performed nvram readout;
