Hi all,

I'm having trouble logging in to my router web config all of a sudden and am having a devil of a time figuring out what is going on. Perhaps you all can help me figure out what to do without having to do a hard reset which will wipe out my complicated (to me) configuration. I have tried unplugging the power without hitting the reset button for several minutes with no improvement.

I'm running DD-WRT v24-sp2 on an Asus RT-N66U. This has been rock solid for years and is still giving me great internet access. Suddenly though I find I cannot log into the web UI. When I use Chrome to go to 192.168.1.1 it returns back ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED.

I am able to telnet into it but really don't know what I'm doing with the CLI. I did use the stopservice and startservice commands to restart the web daemon with no change in the connection refusal.

One other interesting this is that when I used the setuserpasswd command it returned "deadlock detected, try to fix it".

Also the output of the dmesg | tail command does not look at all like what I see in the wiki. Mine is filled with lines like:
ACCEPT IN=wl0.1 OUT=vlan2 MAC=76:d0:2b:5e:60:f3:c0:d3:c0:13:24:69:08:00 SRC=192.168.10.121 DST=172.217.0.46 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=63 ID=51582 DF PROTO=TCP SPT=37597 DPT=443 SEQ=1283587680 ACK=0 WINDOW=65535 RES=0x00 SYN URGP=0 OPT (020405B40402080A017F371E0000000001030307)

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for looking.

I was finally able to get the web interface running again by issuing the following commands through telnet:

killall httpd
killall httpd
/usr/sbin/httpd -h /www
