Subject: Re: OT: WRT Static IP Addresses [was Re: GPL LinkSys Firmware &sveasoft.com]






Can't speak for the default firmware, but I know you
can in Tomato. I assume you mean Static DHCP where the IP is assigned
based on the MAC. If you mean static IP facing the router, then it
depends on your provider. You can usually do that even with a dynamic
account, but it usually goes against the terms of service.

Of note, the WRT54GL runs Tomato brilliantly. It also has built-in DDNS
support so it will update your dynDNS or other DDNS service when your
IP changes. You can even do 2 at a time (I run one for dynDNS and one
for OpenDNS). So many amazing options, I can't recommend the firmware
enough!

This is slightly offtopic... Does anyone know how to set
static IP addresses for the WRT45GL using the shipped firmware (I see
no way)? If there isn't, does Tomato or some other FOSS firmware
support it?
Thanks,
Eric

I know for
a long time Sveasoft wasn't releasing the
source for their firmware and I'm not sure if that's still the case of
not. Google a little if you're interested in the controversy, it's
pretty entertaining. I used to run "pirated" versions of Sveasoft until
I learned about Tomato


http://www.polarcloud.com/tomato


VERY cool software. Completely changes the interface making it all Web
2.0-esque and adds a TON of cool functionality. I set up QoS for
various things so, for example, my torrents don't eat up all my
bandwidth and my voice/video chats over Skype and SIP work flawlessly
at the same time. Ever since I found Tomato, I haven't been keeping
tabs on Sveasoft at all.

Linksys provides GPL versions of all
firmware. 

Many setup Open WRT and Busy Box versions from these tools.

Has anyone played with Sveasoft.com's mods?
