Hi,
I have a WR841ND v.8.2 flashed with dd-wrt build 23838 (IP 192.168.2.1), connected on the WAN port with a TL MR3220 with original firmware, on which I have internet connection thorugh a 3G dongle (IP 192.168.1.1).
I set DNSMasq on WR841, but it doesnt' work: when I connect to WR841 wifi, addresses are resolved using the MR3220 DNS settings, and not primarly WR841 settings specified in DNSMasq.
Does anybody knows how to solve it?
thanks in advance

How are you setting DNSMasq? I used
interface=br1
dhcp-option=br1,3,192.168.4.1
dhcp-range=br1,192.168.4.100,192.168.4.150,255.255.255.0,24h
dhcp-option=br1,6,71.243.0.12,68.237.161.12
It seems to work. Although I've noticed if I don't explicitly set DNS (using dhcp-option=br1,6,...), then DNS does not reliably come through my Gateway at 192.168.1.1.
Actually it only works on the first interface br1, dhcp-option=br1,6,...
Connected br2 clients only get the Gateway IP for "DNS Servers".
I guess we a have a ways to go yet...
