It appears the DDWRT wiki needs an update (or a bug logged) for when you want to assign an alternate gateway because this no longer appears correct:
dhcp-option=lan,3,w.x.y.z
from:

https://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/DNSMasq_as_DHCP_server#Assign_an_alternate_Gateway


Following the most recent posts here:
https://www.dd-wrt.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=1128534#1128534
I have confirmed that this now appears to be correct for recent builds on at least 2 models:
dhcp-option=br0,3,w.x.y.z
or
dhcp-option=br0,option:router,w.x.y.z

I am assuming br0 is the lan interface.

I have updated the wiki. If you need any more wiki changes on that particular page, post to this thread again.

Note: br0 is bridge 0, seen on the Setup - Networking page.

Hi ian5142,

This feature appears to have broken again (as of testing Atheros r41813, December 2019) and the wiki may need an update:

Update to the latest build first. I am not updating the wiki on a per build basis, that is not sustainable. If you have a workaround, what is it? If not, then there is not much I can add in the wiki.

@ian5142,


False alarm. It is working on the most recent build (r42054 as of this post) according to the wiki. It could have been due to needing to clear old settings. Thank you for following up.
