    Help! Static DHCP not working on v0.9

    Hi:

    I've installed the latest v0.9 on the woytekm firmware, to get arond the issue I was having with the VPN passthrough I was having from v0.8. Now, it seems my static DHCP assignment isn't working anymore - the MAC address was specified in xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx (is it case sensitive BTW?), and it's saved and I can see it in the MySetup page, but underneath thr actual DHCP leases I see the devices seemd to be assigned different IP addresses. I've checked the /mnt/mtd5 directory, and there are now 3 files : udhcd.statics, which seemed to have the "old" DHCP static assignment config from v.08, br0.dhcp.statics, which have the static DHCP assignments from this version (0.9), and wlan0.dhcp.statics, which is empty (I didn't enable routed wlan in v0.9).

    Anyone has any ideas what could be wrong?

    Thanks.

    Do I need to do something special to make DHCP on the LAN interface work again in 0.9 like it did in 0.8? With exactly the same table as on my 0.8 version, only the WLAN clients get the correct address. The addresses for the LAN clients seem random.

    I assumed that when the separate DHCP for WLAN and LAN is not enabled, DHCP would behave like previously, but it seems like I'm wrong (or there is a bug). Do I need to enable "DHCP on WLAN interface" and explicitly put the WLAN MAC addresses in the second table?
    DrLex, Jan 21, 2009

  8. wlkn Networkin' Nut

    DHCP on WLAN will only work if routed WLAN is enabled

    I think, You need to enable "DHCP on WLAN interface" + "routed WLAN" and explicitly put the WLAN MAC addresses in the second table for DHCP broadcast on wlan0.

  11. DrLex New Member

    I tried this and it has the same effect. DHCP works on WLAN if the separate routing is enabled and I use a different subnet address, but it doesn't work at all on LAN. The computers get all kinds of addresses except the ones that are in the static DHCP table.

    Even worse, after going back to the original config, the address assigned to my WLAN interface is also wrong. I have tried rebooting everything in all possible ways, to no avail.

    I guess I'll downgrade to the previous version, because static DHCP is pretty much the only reason why I installed this firmware.

    MD5 conflict...?

    Hi,

    I need to ask two things:

    1. MD5 file at sourceforge.net has this MD5 for v0.9 ANNEX A build:

    87fc6f24cc4a6a7cd7923431b8611769

    while, the file I downloaded after unzipping has MD5:

    402AB6FF8A6BF783BCD54DBB97796E66

    I try downloading the file twice but same results. Is something wrong with the file or MD5 listed in MD5 file? Also, I need to download WAG200G_V1.01.06.wm-build-0.9-A.img.zip for flashing via local lan web interface... am I right?


    2. Where can I download the compiled (ready to flash) version of 1.01.06 firmware for wag200?

    Thanks

    2/18/09: I have found the correct file for point # 1. Thanks.
    Looking for the answer for point # 2...

    2/18/09: I have also found the link to download original firmware. Here is the page:

    Just updated my Wag200g to 0.9 (1). Works fine and quick.

    Is it possible somehow to set up a one transfer limit (much more less than 12 Mbps, i need e.g 0.5 Mbps) per client(wireless as well as cable)?
    twist, Feb 20, 2009
    #115

  16. DrLex New Member

    You mean that the download and/or upload speed of each client would be limited to a certain bitrate? I'm afraid that's not possible with this firmware.
    But it would be very useful indeed. Even better would be if the bandwidth were always distributed equally over all clients, so that nobody could hog the entire connection with Bittorrent or so. But I believe that's extremely complicated to implement.
    DrLex, Feb 20, 2009
    #116

  17. twist New Member

    yeah, thats exactly what i need. One simple seting of equal download and/or upload speed for all clients. Doable?
    At 'advanced wireless settings' I can find defoults (from 12..54Mbps or auto).
    Would it be so hard to ad some lower control tx rates to choose there? It would be something however this setting wouldn't fix/equalize the transfer rate for cable clients..
    Such implementation would make this machine really very handy. With the 2M broadband and 6 clients we have here, one downloading a moovie is enogh to freeze the rest of the neighbours arround. A stable share of 330kbps each and we fly nice and easy:)

    Remote Administration

    Hi everyone.

    Currently I´m running Version 0.9(1) on my WAG200 and it is not possible for me to remote access the router (via Internet).

    I tried several Port numbers without success. :mad:

    I´m working with an DYNDNS-Account and if I try to connect via
    https://myAccount.dyndns.org:Portnumber
    I only get Timeout messages after some time.

    DynDns works fine, it is possible to reach the computers behind the router via this address.

    Can anyone confirm if Remote Management works on her/his Router?

    Thanks in advance.

    First of all, thank you for your work on this firmware!

    I have noticed some small issues.

    1. Scp doesn't seem to work: dbclient is missing.

    wag200g:~#scp somefile someuser@somehost:somefile
    /usr/bin/dbclient: No such file or directory
    lost connection


    2. There are various places where you use "ppp0" hardcoded for the wan interface. When the encapsulation is set to "RFC 1483 Bridged", the interface is called nas0.

    wag200g:~#nvram get wan_ifname
    name=nas0

    This, of course, breaks a lot of your added features.

    SCP Works

    IMHO, SCP server is sufficient for copying files to/from the WAG200G.

    I think, the client intentionally not included..

    A minor point on Static DHCP leases in case anyone else is struggling... I followed the directions to enable the mtd5 filesystem and set it to automount, but could not get Static leases to work. It was only when I clicked the boxes to run rc.local and rc.myfirewall that it began working. Since I wasn't using either, I didn't enable initially. Hope this helps another newbie like me... :)

    i just brick my lovely router. What a sad. Linksys stop this model in my country and i need to restore it back cause i love it. I was waiting for about 20 minutes but nothing happened, so i decided to give it a restart. I have a bootloader problem because the power led i always red, but the switch is working. Tryied the 30secs-1m reset but nothing changed.

    After WM's disappearing and have nothing to do to rebrick my modem, i did this:
    First i called Linksys tech support to informed about and they told me..... what do u think?
    Ei young boy, we have about a thousand of bricked modems in our wharehouse flashed with WM's firms. Dont be idiots and dont flash wag200 with alternative firmwares because if something can be better than it is, only WE can fix it and not noname people that they want to experiment with VICTIMS such as u r. The way that that guy (WM) had to avoid the bricks, is only one command and that firmware have hundred of bugs. that means that he doesnt knows what is doing and all are under luck and is only a 10% to flash this firmware whithout bricking your modem and i was not with the lucky ones. What a shame of me of course for being such an idiot. Another think is 2 of my friends that tried the same, they throw them from the window after that. This is the true and dont be stupids like me. Thats why woytekm first told me "send me your router to fix it" and then of course....... he dissapeared, without answer any mails anymore
    So....... if u think that u r dude man, try to provide a support from your self and dont dissappear to difficulties. This is the difference from a proffessional against amateurs and change your title to your post to:

    Hello all,
    I don't know anything about thousands of bricked modems (i've had about 20 such reports in the whole time when the firmware was avaliable). Check sourceforge project opinion page - where are those thousands of angry wag200 owners ?
    This is the mail that I've got from pavlos:

    "sorry about the linksys forum, but u forced me to write all of them because of your behaviour man. i lost a modem but u lost your reputation anymore ;)"


    I've always offered help to those that got into trouble while flashing this firmware EVEN IF THEY SIMPLY HAVEN'T READ THE DISCLAIMERS OR DOCUMENTATION before flashing it. I simply haven't had a time lately to read wag200 mailbox - people that write to me know that i'm frequently responding after 2-3 weeks or even later....

    The bottom line of this situation is that i'm not going to release anything else on wag200. The www page and sourceforge project will be shot down, and i'll send the request to the forum admin to at least change the topic title here. I don't want more "victims", even if they are victims of their own incompetence and lack of interest in reading documentation ....

    Sorry to hear of this WM, have been following your developments for a while - quite a few similarities to RouterTech firmware on similar hardware platform (including the use of minix filesystem) - but Linksys 'core-logic' and flash organisation very different to the Ti nsp based routers supported by RouterTech firmware.

    As I see it the big problem of the Linksys WAG200G for 3rd party firmware is the stupid build options Linksys used for the old adam2 bootloader. Most routers with Ti AR7 chipset have an ftp interface to the bootloader which can be used to reload firmware or configuration with Ti (adam2app, pcapp, PC-Tool) or 3rd party tools (RRT, Ciclamab, Tiupgrade), most other Linksys devices have a tftp interface.

    Replacing the bootloader is easy from a Linux command line, but much more risky than firmware upgrades - the bootloader must be built with correct ram/flash and switch support, and then the Linux kernel must have correct drivers for the version of adam2/pspboot bootloader.

    If the router fails to boot, or gets locked in a reboot cycle due to config error, and there is no way to communicate directly to the bootloader, the only solution appears to be to use JTAG to clear the config, or do a full reflash. The old HairyDairyMaid wrt54g.c JTAG tools with very poorman passive parallel port cable do support the Ti AR7 processor, but soldering a header onto the PCB not for everyone!

    Second and most important is that WM has mailed me and he is comfortable to refix my modem
    I dont really think that a big sorry for me will fix everything here and if can do something else...... plz tell me so

  49. mstombs Network Guru

    Not an issue with GPL, the bootloader is declared proprietary Ti/Telogy Inc, but full leaked sources are available in various GPL distros. Linksys/CyberTan just decided not to enable the pcapp interface. I am not sure exactly what they did include in the WAG200G bootloader because it fits into 64K with the ftp interface in other similar routers, the WAG200G version is 128K. The bootloader must be built to be board specific, with knowledge of the specific cpu/ram/flash/switch/nvram used. I'm sure its possible to build a new bootloader that boots, but without knowing all the details of the WAG200G build not easy to get one that will support all aspects of the (patched) Linksys firmware.

    Hi
    I have a question regarding WAG200G
    I just installed Firmware Version: 1.01.09-openwag200-13
    can I use this router as wireless bridge or client bridge or whatever you call it
    basically I want to connect the WAG200G to my primary router, then connect non wifi capable devices to the WAG200G?
    I tried bridge mode but it looks like it's not the right feature but just a modem mode only
