- | == Introduction == | ||
- | ''This section explains how to use the DD-WRT GUI to configure DD-WRT supporting multicast IPTV traffic while at the same time anable some LAN ports and Wireless Clients working in parallel.'' | ||
- | This works on my WRT54GL V1.1 connecting to T-Home, without using a separate Router for the multicast traffic. | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | == Assumption == | ||
- | In the sample configuration, the TV media receiver is connected to LAN Port 4, and the router Ip is 192.168.1.1. Other configurations work accordingly. | ||
- | |||
- | == Prerequisites == | ||
- | # Ensure that you are at least on DD-WRT 24v1 Firmware, otherwise download the most recent release. | ||
- | # Connect the TV media receiver to Port 4. Connect other LAN connections to Ports 1,2,3 | ||
- | |||
- | == Allow for multicast traffic == | ||
- | # Disable (uncheck) "Filter Multicast" on Security-->Firewall | ||
- | |||
- | == Disable multicast traffic to reach the Wireless adapter == | ||
- | # In Wireless-->Basic setting, set "Network Configuration" to "Unbridged", and "Multicast forwarding" to "disabled". | ||
- | # Provide 192.168.3.1 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0 as the IP address for Wireless connections | ||
- | |||
- | == Setup an additional VLAN == | ||
- | # In Setup-->VLANs, check the "tagged" checkboxes for Ports 1,2,3. Then, check the three accoring checkboxes in the VLAN 7 row, uncheck them in the VLAN 0 row, and finally uncheck the "tagged" checkboxes. | ||
- | # Apply the settings and reboot the router | ||
- | |||
- | == Disable multicast traffic to reach the LAN Ports 1,2,3 == | ||
- | # In Setup-->Networking, check "Unbridged" for "Network Configuration vlan7", "Multicast forward" to "disable". | ||
- | # Below this entry, provide IP number 192.168.2.1 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0 as the IP address | ||
- | |||
- | == Enable DHCP for the additional local Networks and final steps == | ||
- | # In Setup-->Networking, add two DHCP Servers in the bottom area, one for vlan7, one for eth1 (keep the standard settign for the other fields) | ||
- | # Apply all changes, and reboot the router | ||
- | |||
- | Finally, enjoy TV, LAN, and Wireless simultaneously |
