Pardon the intrusion but this caught my eye. I've got one of these beasts that
my son fried trying to hook up his dish ISP. The only part that isn't working
is the single port that connects to the internet - all the other ports and the
wireless works as advertised. Do you know if dd-wrt will allow me to re-route
that bum port to one of the other ports?
It's a plaything just gathering dust right now but I have a couple of uses for
it if I can get it working. Of course, buying a cheap Linksys or Netgear
router/AP would probably be more cost effective (last one I bought was $21 at
Fry's) but it is something to keep idle fingers out of trouble...
