Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
 

Does anyone know if this will work with the D4 revision at all. need to be able to configure access lists so kids dont get square eyes. Thanks in advance.

Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
 

Another build is out: 15778.

Although the D4 isn't listed in the DD-WRT Router Database, I'm sure I've seen threads in their forum where users have had success installing it.

Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
 

I got it installed on the new D4 models but

1)Belkin G bridge didn't connect at all, my laptop A/B/G did fine.
2)Power levels with DD-WRT went all over the place (using InSSIDer), speed very slow. I get around 20-25Mb on the stock VM or DLink firnware and 2Mb on DD-WRT.

(The neighbour's Sky supplied NetGear has higher signal strength, even if I'm in the same room as the DLink.)

Gone to the DLink 4.11 now.

Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
 

Been looking in here for some time now, as I've just got the D-Link router from VM.

Just wondering if there are any major improvements by upgrading the FW from 1.00VG to whatever is recommended in here? Mainly, the router isn't used for technical stuff, however opening ports might be something I'll have to do, given my Call of Duty: Black Ops game on the Xbox keeps saying it has a Moderate NAT. Apart from online gaming on two consoles simultaneously, there are two and sometimes three laptops that share the connection for general internet use.

Cheers guys and gals! :)

Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
 

Some firmware can't handle the same ports being used for multiple devices, e.g. two 360s connected to Live at the same time, in which case one will have an open NAT and the other will be strict or moderate. This is assuming auto IP allocation and UPnP are enabled. Port forwarding won't work in this situation because you can only manually open the ports to one device at a time.

With DD-WRT I have set up two static leases for my 360s and then make use of the firmware's UPnP feature. One 360 gets access to the actual ports and the other gets access to different ports that somehow map to Live allowing me to get an open NAT on both 360s at the same time. I can't remember the technical details of how this works though.

Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
 

That really is a fantastic reply. I've always suffered a Moderate NAT on one console if both are in a game, however recently, we've only been using one console, and the other has just gathered dust.

Currently, my problem is that Xbox Live has an Open NAT, but Black Ops shows as Moderate. Treyarch are blaming the ISP for this. The router has all the correct ports open and uPnP set.

I would like to have both consoles set to Open when we DO play online, so giving this a whirl might be worth it after all.

Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
 

I found another article that talks about multiple 360s, NAT and DD-WRT:

This was the one I wanted to link to in my previous post, but I couldn't find it at the time.

Also, we're up to build 15962 (24/12/2010) as of this post.

Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
 

Hello again MJ. Thanks for the link. I've bookmarked it.

About to upgrade to a new firmware to get as similar to you as possible. If you're having good experiences, then I'm thinking you're the perfect candidate to base my network off. :)

Also trying to get Football Manager 2011 to work with port forwarding, rather than using Hamachi. Also slightly concerned that FM is hogging a lot of my broadband, which it really shouldn't be doing, given the amount of information being sent isn't huge, nor is it bandwidth-consuming like, say, a torrent.

Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
 

Upgraded to the latest DD-WRT firmware. Set up all passwords and all the vital stuff. Now looking to set static IP's for the devices available at home. I've set the port forwarding for Football Manager so far. I've set two static IP's so far as I troll through everything to find the MAC addresses. It's good to see this firmware allows us to have Static IP's without setting the product to the same IP. VERY useful. :)

Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
 

Ive been running 15962 for a few weeks with no issues. I notice from the above a newer version is out, so may give that a run.

Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
 

Has anyone tried this router with dual wan scripts?

I have both a virgin and bt connection and would love to combine the two for torrents, etc.

Re: [GUIDE] Dir-615 to dd-wrt
 

Hi
Last night I flashed my router to this software, when I was using the DLink firmware I was getting wireless transfer speeds pc to pc of almost 100Mbit / sec
Since I have flashed this firmware, I am only getting the following
Rate 54 Mb/s
I have set the Wireless Network Mode to N Only
MIMO - Transmission Fixed Rate is Auto
Transmission Fixed Rate is also Auto
Is there anyway to get my wireless speeds back or am I now set at 54Mb/sec?
