Under the DD-WRT web interface, I went to the Administration tab, and then the Commands Tab. There I entered: swconfig dev eth0 set enable_vlan 1 swconfig dev eth0 set apply That fixed it! The only thing is I'm going to have to add that to some sort of startup script or I'll have to enter it everytime the router reboots (which isn't often anyway). Note: according to the forums, some people had to replace eth0 with eth1. Anyway, thanks for taking the time and giving me all the advice! Thanks for posting the solution. FFFR. No problem. |

Everything is working fine except two of the computers on the network can't communicate with each other but they can both communicate with other computers on the network. For example, I have 3 computers named Desktop, Lappy, and media-center. Media-center and Lappy are both running Windows 8.1, and Desktop is running Windows 7. Before I got the new router, all these computes could share files and remote desktop just fine with each other. Now Desktop and media-center can't communicate at all with each other (they can't ping each other, remote desktop, or share files) but Lappy can communicate with both of these computers just fine. Any ideas? I've been experimenting and I've got some new information. I realized that both the computers that couldn't communicate with each other are both wired into the router. The Laptop (Lappy) was wireless and it can communicate fine with both computers. So I decided to turn off the wireless on Lappy and plug it into the router too. It then lost the ability to communicate with Desktop and media-center. I unplugged Lappy from the router and turned on the wifi again. Lappy could instantly communicate with Desktop and media-center again. So it appears to be an issue with the router. As mentioned above it is TP-Link TL-WR841ND v9 running Firmwa DD-WRT v24-sp2 (12/22/14) std Why such an old version? -- Brian Gregory (in the UK).
