I gave a new try to FreeWRT on my Asus WL-500G deluxe router this week-end. I really enjoy the way FreeWRT evolves. Configuration and building are quite perfect (especially, menus are clear), and FWCF is wonderful.
However, I went into troubles with FreeWRT 1.0 (and as Akismet don't want to let me add a ticket on trac, I let you know about my problems here). Those problems concern VLAN configuration.
In /etc/network/interfaces we should have :
lan : 1 2 3 4 5*
wan: 0 5
*instead of*
lan: 0 1 2 3 5 *
wan: 4 5
On wl-500g, port 0 is labelled as WAN port, and port 4 belongs to the LAN switch.
I also had to use robocfg because of weird stp setting:
# robocfg port 0 stp none
Then everything went alright (including WPA-PSK encrypted Wi-Fi network).
Seems to me that FreeWRT is going the right way (it was a real change for me, as I bumped my router's firmware version from r5xx to r1xxx !). Keep on working like that, you're doing a god job.
