How can I use one of the 4 lan ports to became wan with DHCP, just like WAN port was?

Light storm destroyed my wan port!
Wireless and lan are still working!

BTW router is Linksys 54GL v1.1


nvram show |grep vlan
vlan0ports=3 2 1 0 5*
vlan0_bridged=1
port5vlans=0 1 16
port3vlans=0
port1vlans=0
wl0_vlan_prio_mode=off
wan_ifname2=vlan1
vlan1_bridged=1
lan_default=vlan0 eth1 eth2 eth3
lan_ifnames=vlan0 eth1 eth2 eth3 vlan1
vlan1hwname=et0
vlan1ports=4 5
port4vlans=0
vlans=0
wan_iface=vlan1
port2vlans=0
size: 22495 bytes (10273 left)
probe_blacklist=vlan0 vlan1
port0vlans=1
vlan0hwname=et0

Can I use the following commands to move LAN port 1 to the WAN VLAN

nvram set vlan0ports="2 1 0 5*"
nvram set vlan1ports="4 3 5"
nvram commit
reboot

Thanks

I think you can do it right from the GUI. Just move one of the LAN ports to VLAN1 under Setup/VLANs

either way will work (gui under vlan OR command line), as long as you have the port numbers correct.

I have the same problem - a lightning storm destroyed my wan port!
My router info is:

Router Model: Linksys WRT54GL
Firmware Version: DD-WRT v23 SP2 (09/15/06) std - build 3932

Even if my router shows me the modems external IP if I plug it in in the faulty WAN port I have no internet access on my LAN ports. It must be the lightning damaging the router.

I tried the following procedure:

1. Goto Setup->VLANs.
2. Uncheck the box for the WAN port in the VLAN1 row.
3. Uncheck the box for whatever port you want to use in the VLAN0 row.
4. Check the box for the port you unchecked in step 3 in the VLAN1 row.
5. Apply settings.

My router assignes me the external IP (89.212.x.x) and I can't access the router on 192.168.1.1 after I plug in the cable from the modem in the new "WAN" port (port1). I configured port 1 to be WAN and ports 2-4 to be LAN, the faulty WAN port is disabled. I have internet access via LAN ports 2-4 but can't access the router. The only way to get access to the router is to plug my LAN cable in port1 (new WAN) or unplug the cable from modem.

Any ideas how to figure this out?

i registered here to thanks to all of you for sharing knowledge with other.
I have this problem, wan and port 1 on lan died. after shearchig about this problem, and after numerous tries i finaly get it working, thanks to info provided in this page.
Mini how to for thos like mine know nothing about this wonderfull ruters and have same problem.
on setup, vlans, disable wan interface and asign vlan 0 to port 2(me as an example), and disable other ports for vlan 0. Asign vlan 0 "lan" setting
on vlan 1 activate other ports in lan (3 & 4 to me) and assign "lan" settings. That'all on this menu.
On networking menu on the wan port assignement, choos vlan 0. other settings remains untouched (default).
After that ll it's working again on my router (except to port 1 and wan - died & disabled).
.
if anyone has links with information for new bie pls post them (i do not wher is the config file, how to modify, how telnet the ruter via pc, where to put scripts & other things like that.)
Thanks a lot for save me a few bucks, and a chance to learn something new.
Sorin. (sory for my terible enghlish, i don't speak very well)

That's precisely what it means. I just saw someone claiming to have gotten VLAN's working on gigabit switches though:
