I have successfully load the DD-WRT v24-sp2 (03/03/09) std (SVN revision 11718) firmware to my new WHR-G300N using TFTP without any problem. However, I found the following problem when using it.
1. DHCP does not function when I change to router's LAN IP address away from default class C of 192.168.1.x.
2. The wireless SSID doesn't change even I changed it in webUI, I still able to see it in default name "dd-wrt".

for me it sounds like you missed to press apply, but just save instead. i tested both on the 3/3 build right now and it worked. no problems with dhcp on lan ip change and no problem with ssid change. all broadcasted as expected _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking?

I already tried to reload the factory default in dd-wrt UI already, but still not working, anyway, I will try again this evening and let you all knows.. Many thanks!
I have tried the DD-WRT v24-sp2 (03/03/09) std (SVN revision 11718) firmware again this evening, I have figured out when I set enable the "Mac Address Clone" function with non default IP subnet 192.168.1.x , it will cause the unit non functioning.
Futhermore, the AOSS Button to turn off radio didn't function. (In Services menu -> Services Tab)

the AOSS button is not supported on these devices yet. i dont like the insecure SES, AOSS etc. so i see these useless buttons always as obsolete _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking?

Yes, that's why I make the button to a "radio on/off" button, but however it is not working in this firmware+G300N. It was working on my previous dd-wrt+G125.
i have bought the WHR-G300N at 26.02.2009 and now its running with WLI-UC-G300N USB Adapter.
thx
Hi dg9ekc,
I´ve seen your running two routers, me too (the same)
Did you connect them via WDS? If yes, can you explain me the steps to get running this properly ? One time I had this WHR-G300N and the WL500W running pretty well with WDS (LazyWDS on), but I never was able to connect to the WHR-G300N directly with wireless (signal and connect was good, but no access to the router and wired devices on it). To make good things better I tried several firmware-flashes and updates thousends of different configs and yes always 30-30-30 reset, but no success.
At the end of the day/(2weeks) I was not able to connect both routers via WDS again, even with old ,one time, working configs!!!??? Finally I bought a second WHR-G300N, but even with similar firmware and settings (DD-WRT v24-sp2 (03/03/09) std - build 11718 ) it was not possible to get WDS working again. So at the moment I´m running two WHR-G300N in repeater bridge Mode. Disabling WAN, or DHCP seems to block WLAN-access.
