I'm now here, so bear with me. I purchased an E2000 and followed the flashing process. The device is up and running on the dd-wrt flash with the following info:
Router Model
Linksys E2000
Firmware Version
DD-WRT v24-sp2 (11/21/10) mega - build 15778
Actual last flashed firmware:
dd-wrt.v24-15778_NEWD-2_K2.6_mega-e2k-e3k.bin
It is currently set to run in N/G mode and seems to work ok for some devices, but others connect and then a few minutes later get dropped and cannot reconnect. It's strictly setup as an AP, not firewall or other configurations setup.
I've tried setting up a syslog server, but the information I get is minimal, daemons starting/stopping etc, but no info regarding devices connecting etc.
Any thoughts on either what may be the issue, or how to get some type of logging going that is more detailed so I can figure out what the issue is?
I apologize in advance if this is a bonehead post, I've killed a few hours searching google and forums without much luck.

Current Configuration:
Linksys WRT320N Converted To Cisco E2000
DD-WRT v24-sp2 (11/21/10) std-usb-nas
SVN revision 15778)
Configured as WAP following steps from the Wiki
WAN Assigned to Switch
WAN Port Connected to LAN Port on Primary Router (DIR-655)
I am having the same issue as stated above on my WRT320N that I converted to an E2000. It mostly happens under heavy load and other times just out of the blue. It even occurred as a WRT320N before I converted it.
When it was a WRT320N I used:
Recommended Build r14929 and almost everything in between up to r15778
And pretty much the same when I converted it, however I used r149** something or other that fixed the LED Issue to r15778.
My Wireless devices lose network connectivity ("Limited Access" appears with Exclamation Point), but my LAN Connected devices keep on trucking. Another weird issue related to this is that if I disconnect and reconnect with my Laptop the issue is still there, but if I do the same on my PC with Wireless Dongle it works for a while before crapping out again. I do have an original E2000, but I bricked it for a challenge, so I can't see if the issue is present on it as well. I may need assistance unbricking the E2000, but we'll save that for a different thread.

... used several builds including the recommended ones from the "Recommended Build" thread and the issue persists. I'm just wondering if someone has come accross the same issue and came up with a solution.
