Hi I've been searching for an answer to this for a while and someone mentioned to me that DD-wrt might be the answer for my dilemma.

I recently purchased a business internet connection that comes with 5 IPs with the intention of having 5 routers behind it and having 5 separate networks that would show up as different connections in the outside. I made a little diagram just to explain myself better.

I need the devices behind each router to show the different Ips. This is why I bought the 5 additional IPs. Is this possible? with DD-WRT? Do I need additional software or hardware?

If someone could point me to the right direction that would be great. I have some understanding on networking but not very advanced.

Thank you in advance.

You need a switch. There is only 4 ports on a dd-wrt router.


Connect the switch to the internet link and the routers to the switch. Set static ip for the wan port on the routers.


You can also split out the 4 lan ports on the router as separate vlans.
