Hi,
I installed DD-WRT on my good old Asus RT-N10+ (B1) router.
I set it up as an access point, wired to my main router (from my ISP). It all seemed to be working OK until I noticed that although I was able to connect to my wireless network (from the Asus router), I couldn't access anything, not even the internal router configuration page.
Nonetheless, if I try to access the internal router configuration page through a device connected to my main router, I can get there without any problem whatsoever.
And what is more puzzling is the fact that this does not happen all the time. Sometimes the wifi connection on my Asus router is working perfectly (giving me access to the Internet) and all of the sudden it stops working.
Typically I get a "DEST HOST UNREACHABLE" message on my browser (or something similar) and if I try to ping some server, when I get a ping result it usually has a latency of several seconds (7000 or more millisec).
Well, upgrading my router does not seem to make any difference on this issue .
Network connectivity still does not work over WiFi (although I can connect to the WiFi network), but it works on a wired connection.
Chrome for Android reports this error when I try to access anything (including the router's internal page):
ERR_ADDRESS_UNREACHABLE
