I just bought a used wrt400n router. I've flashed it with2 different dd-wrt builds and stock fw and on any fw the router often will not connect to the Internet. This happens on LAN and WLAN. The wifi light on top of the router flashes a few times then stops and restarts. Same with the LAN light.
Any input is welcome.

Just noticed that if I unplug the cable from the LAN port and plug it back in I get web acces for a bit then it goes out again, til I unplug it and plug it back in.

I did that sash, more than once. It's on the latest from 1-1-13 right now.
Only works when I physically unplug and plug the LAN cable back in and then only briefly.
To be clear, this also happens on linksys fw. I will try some other builds this evening. I think I read buddee saying he had 18xxx something working on his. I'll go
Back and check and try that build.

No matter what fw I try it is the same problem. Can't access the web but I can access the router.
