Tomato Wishlist


Radius server would be great, or at least package system which will let you add some stuff you need. PLEASE.
 
I saw somewhere that for requesting IP address from DHCP you can specify a preferred Ip address. that would be great option to have for WAN side DHCP client.

Since the call traffic is forwarded the client, why not have the client de-code the caller ID info, since it already speaks the protocol and has the ability to display the info ? Why would your router need to be involved ? Is it not a SIP server that is sending the stream in the first place ? Simply analyse the "components" that the SIP server is sending. I see no logic in the redundancy of trying to make the router do it again !

if you're sip "client" is a vonage device that's an actual piece of hardware, then there is no client on your PC per se. It's just the phones in your house. Sure, I use phones with standard caller ID support here, but that does nothing to get the list onto my computer, which is what i want.
 
I'd appreciate a "WAN Down" script, which is executed when the
WAN connection goes down. Just a counterpart to the existent
"WAN Up" script. TIA.
 
Hi, here are some wishlist;

1) Two/Three SSID wireless networks... too dificult?...
2) CPU overclocking?
3) GPIO out with SES button enable/disable function (i.e, an additional hardwired buzzer sounds when WAN goes down).
4) Energy saving function (slowdown CPU clock) when CPU_load decreases.

I know, 2-3-4 are hardware related but I hope software controlled, no?

And again, Jon, congratulations for your excellent job, we started loving tomato in Spain. By the way, if need an spanish translation of the GUI, contact me.. for free!.
 
Please, don't turn Tomato into a second DD-WRT, which is
already suffering severely under the burden of its gimmicks!
:cool:

Check the Vonage Forum at www.vonage-forum.com - there are a few applications that allow you to download your Vonage call logs to Excel or other formats. A simple modem any one of a number of applications could also keep call logs for you.

My wishes:

1. Fully functional wget or curl and/or support for OpenWRT packages so we can install them ourselves (would allow anyone to use any DDNS provider they like with or without direct support for it).

2. Stop needlessly redeclaring the same font family over and over again in the CSS and/or stop loading the default stylesheet when "custom" is selected.

3. Fix positioning of JavaScript close boxes that appear on mouseovers of certain table cells (resize a window while one is visible and those boxes just float there).

4. Make the download a regular zip file. I shouldn't have to download a new application just to unpack somebody's favorite esoteric compression format.

As I read this I couldn't stop me to say something about your wishes :biggrin: it was too obvious to miss the opportunity:

ad 1. Did you ever think of using OpenWRT instead of tomato? That would make installing OpenWRT packages a lot easier!

ad 2+3. Same as 1. Why are u using tomato if you don't like the itf?

ad 4. In my opportunity the developer has the right to decide what format to use for packaging and delivery. If you have problems with 7-zip, then try p7z on linux or 7-zip/izarc/winrar on windows :rolleyes:

As for my wishes:

Keep on doing what you like: That's a guarantee that the tomato firmware will stay as great as it already is! THX for providing it.

Configuration Export Option

Previously posted elsewhere. Realize now this is the right place.

I think it would be a good idea if when using Tomato (v1.06) to backup it's configuration (Admin => Configuration => Backup Configuration) it only backed up those NVRAM registers that Tomato directly allows access to via its web interface. Currently it appears that it backs up all NVRAM registers much like executing 'NVRAM show' at the command prompt.

I was hoping to Backup my current configuration, reset all NVRAM settings to factory defaults, and then restore from the backup but doing so restores NVRAM registers that I was trying to clear such as NC_GatewayName, NC_Homepage, snmpd_sysname, etc.

It was suggested that two options be provided on the backup configuration screen: (1) Write NVRAM to file, (2) Write (only) Tomato settings to file.

Thanks,
MOTE
 
when using the dynamic ip update function how about adding an option to flush the dnsmasq cache or kill/reload the process upon ip change?

i use pppoe and occasionally get "bumped" by my isp (randomly) which results in a new ip. attempts to resolve my domain name after an ip change are failing (pointing to my old ip) for quite a while.

using my isp's dns directly (no router) works almost immediately.

thanks ;)
 
Being able to ALLOW websites in Access Restriction and block all else.

I have a problem with people DL'ing "free" programs and well as visiting social sites when homework should be done.
One computer will need everything blocked temporarily the other I would like to limit to children's sites.
 
Hi,

probably there is a chance for other nice statistk graphs, like in the freifunk firmware ??

- Signal/noise ratio
- system load 1,5,15
- Bandwith
- Nat connections, ARp, etc.


and of course, snmp build in.

Best regards OnkelM

thought i would look into this again and came across my old posts. while excel format is certainly nice, it's not nearly as nice as having it pop up on my computer while the phone is ringing. i could use the vonage website if i just wanted logs.

any other thoughts? this seems like it'd be a great openwrt package, which dd-wrt, tomato, etc. could then adapt if they so choose.

*Edit - looks like vonalink may have something that actually does what i want finally. maybe not as nice as NCID running on my linky, but i think it'll do. vonalink and any other solution beyond the WRT router will require an additional hub (not switch) to get the SIP packets broadcast to the machine doing the SIP packet sniffing. Not a huge deal, but again, not as clean as NCID integrated onto the perfect linux server we all already have.
 
I just got a WRT350n which is running now with my cable-con.
Too bad I'm not able to run Tomato on that thing. DD-WRT is just creeping me out...

Will there ever be a Tomato-Version for that box? Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze. :kiss:


Edit: I would pay 30 US-$ for that version. The dd-wrt "QoS" ain't worth that name...
 
With the new port forwarding rules allowing a rule to be restricted to an IP source address, what about restricting by name->IP lookup? As an example, if I want to allow a co-worker to access my system and he's on an ISP that gives him a dynamic external, it would be helpful to be able to make the rule allow the DDNS name he uses rather than updating the external IP every time it's changed.
