Hi.

I have an Asus RT-N16 (on DD-WRT v24-sp2 (12/19/10) big - build 15943M NEWD-2 K2.6 Eko) which is acting as a repeater.

I wanted to plug my printer in it, but even if there is a usb print option in services, printing is not working out of the box.

I read that newer builds have print server working out of the box. Indeed, it worked without any other steps than checking the option in services.

BUT

In newer builds, when I activate wireless security on virtual interface of the repeater router, I can't connect to it. If I use cable, I can access Internet, as the secured wireless connection to the gateway router is working. But I need to connect wirelessly to the repeater router.

I tried those builds:

dd-wrt.v24-18024_NEWD-2_K2.6_mega.bin
dd-wrt.v24-19342_NEWD-2_K2.6_mega.bin
dd-wrt.v24-21286_NEWD-2_K2.6_big.bin

As soon as I got back the build 15943M NEWD-2 K2.6 Eko wireless connection to the secured repeater router worked again, but then, not printing.

Is this a bug?

when updating to the newer builds, did you do a hard reset or 'reset to factory' in gui?

See peacock announcement, note 18 in particular.
