Hi,
Always puzzled me this one, how to setup port forwarding correctly, QOS,
Remote Desktop etc on WRT54GS running DD-WRT in **WDS MODE**
Should be simple? I think I'm over complicating my approach to setting it
up, as because of this it's not working due to a fundamental error on my
part. Single router no problem, but 3 in WDS?
3 routers in total in the following layout:-
Andy -- Les -- BB (internet facing)
[the above routers are in separate houses, Les in centre as he is he only
one with LOS to both Andy and BB and therefore has both MAC addresses of the
other 2 routers. BB cannot see Andy via LOS and vice versa]
Which router(s) needs configuring for each user?
For the various port forwarding eg. Remote Desktop (RDP), VNC, Bit Torrent,
QOS, VOIP etc etc. Is it a global thing? Or individual?
Basically I need a "dummies guide"
Is it possible to remote Manage each routers config pages? By default, only
BB (internet facing) router can be reached on an external IP address.
If the router config was changed to:-
Andy (Client) -- Les (AP) -- BB (Client)
for the sake of testing speedbooster using the WRT54GS in the above
scenario, how would this effect the above port forwarding etc for RDP, Bit
Torrent etc.
I'm having a noob moment. I'll sit in the corner on my own wearing the hat
with a big 'D' on ... but my name doesn't start with a 'D' :(
I also have another couple of problems:-
1. I've tried downloading the internet but it's taking forever.
2. My mug holder will no longer retract back into the box. It says 16x on
the front, I'd assumed it would support the weight of my cup of tea?
*whistles* :)
Regards
Andy :)
