[General] WHR 125G + tomato setup help

Hello!
I'm a total noob here so pl bear with me

I have a need few inputs on how to the do the following using a G125 running tomato 1.23ND

1) How do I assign a static Ip to my computer that is connected to the LAN port of the router?
When I manually enter the IP as 192.168.1.xx subnet 255.255.255.0 , I am able to ping the router (192.168.1.1) but am unable to access the net through the WAN. Only when I set it to automatically obtain IP am I able to connect to the WAN.

2) How do I configure the Router to schedule a Connect/Disconnect of the WAN(modem) at a particular time? Script on the router or from the computer?

3) Is there any way I can set the up the network in such a way that I can access the LAN automatically, But have to Dial to access the WAN(net)?

Thanks in advance

I'm on a different router but the static ip setup should be the same. Have you set it up as in the picture?

hey!

yes.. I have done that.. I am able to ping the router when I do that but can't access the net.. what should I set as the gateway? the router Ip?

Also I managed to do point 2 through the scheduler+ "service wan start/stop" command..

Yes gateway setting on computer should be router IP.

Under pppoe double check the user, pass, and service names. Then try cold boot in series. With every computer, router and modem off, start modem then router then computer('s), waiting for all lights to finish flashing before starting the next.

Your missing DNS. You won't get anywhere without DNS.

Re: [General] WHR 125G + tomato setup help

Damn. I feel like such an idiot. How could I have missed something so stupid? :|

It works flawlessly now.. thanks!

two more quick tomato based questions..

1.Is there anyway I can send commands to the router from my system?

I basically want one script that when run connects WAN and another when run disconnects WAN..

2. Is there anyway I can access my modem's Webadmin page from behind the router?

Thanks!

Re: [General] WHR 125G + tomato setup help

I just managed to connect to my modem admin page using IPtables

now only for WAN connect/disconnect from the computer, that is without having to login to the router admin page and click on connect/disconnect... Basically cause my DSL line is a capped line and I don't want to be always connected to the net..

Instead of hard coding the static IP, you cna just use the Static DHCP function of Tomato to assign fixed IPs. Just make sure the Static IPs are outside of the DHCP Server "IP Address Range" you have specified under Basic-Network.

See attached screenshot.

What modem are you useing?

Hey..

no luck.. tired cold booting ( like you said ) still no luck..

The modem is a SmartAX Mt882 (it came with my DSL connection)

The funny thing is when I set my manual IP, I then log into the router.. and then taking the external IP, I'm able to ping it.. along with the modem "gateway"...

Re: [General] WHR 125G + tomato setup help

Your "modem" is a router. I don't believe you can run one router behind another. You may have to set mode to router in order for this to work, under advanced- routing- misc.- mode.

Re: [General] WHR 125G + tomato setup help

Hey.. Really sorry.. I haven't been feeling to well.. I'll connect my "router" modem directly and check right now..

I'm even more confused now.. let me try and explain..

Modem: Smartax MT882 running original Fw. It's in Pure Bridge mode.





Now do I keep it in pure bridge or routed mode? if routed what IP should I add?

When I set my wifi router Router mode from gateway, I wasn't able to connect to the net..

My main aim is to assign my machine a Static IP and still have the router assign Ip's via DCHP to other machines that connect to it..
secondary aim would be to be able to log into the Modem admin page..

Thanks..!

Hello!

Would there be any page where I can see the list of commands I can run by telnet ing to the router?

I would like to change the WAN ppoe Username and password through a script..

Tks!
