I had a seemingly very similar problem with the same device:

Later I noticed that OpenWRT RC6 does not install too:

I want to use FreeWRT 1.0.3 on my Asus WL-500g. I've downloaded Freewrt and followed the handbook for compiling and installing FreeWRT. I've used the Web-Frontend (original Asus firmware, tftp didn't work) to upload the freewrt image to the device. After the upload I left the router alone for about 30 minutes, but I could not reach the device. Then I tried to set the arp-cache manually:
arp -s 192.168.1.1 00:11:d8:74:xx:xx,
where "00:11:d8:74:xx:xx" is the MAC address of the WL-500g. Then I tried to ping it and it replied to a few ICMP requests (I don't think this is normal):
frodo freewrt # ping 192.168.1.1
PING 192.168.1.1 (192.168.1.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 192.168.1.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.343 ms

--- 192.168.1.1 ping statistics ---
5 packets transmitted, 1 received, 80% packet loss, time 3999ms
rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.343/0.343/0.343/0.000 ms

I can neither reach the router through ssh nor telnet. I have also tried to use "failsave" from the FreeWRT distribution but it didn't work either.

What could I be doing wrong?

I have attached my FreeWRT .config. I've tried several configurations (enabled and disabled openssh for example).

Regards,
Dan
