Accessing

  • Open a web browser
  • In the location bar, enter <Router_IP>
  • Hit Enter/Return or click Go
  • There is no username to enter
  • Enter the password for your router.

By default, <Router_IP> is 192.168.1.1
Default username is left blank however use root (so username and pwd can be saved to browser [or use firefox, cause it doesn't care])
Default password is admin


Regaining access

If for some reason you completly lose web access to the router (for example, at least in the official v23-beta2, you can't prevent wireless access to the web interface without also preventing wired access to it. I don't know if it's a bug or a feature but still, it's there), you can ssh into the router and start the web server by entering the following command: "httpd -d /www"
To connect through secure http, add the option -S at the end of the command. See the httpd man pages for more information about that command.

You can use this behavior to get a more secure router by activating the web interface only when you need to configure it, and then close the web server once you're done.
To close the web server, run the command " kill `cat /tmp/var/run/httpd.pid` " (note the backquotes) or " kill `cat /tmp/var/run/httpsd.pid` " if you ran the web server with the option -S to get secure http.

Simulation

The Old Alchemy interface of DD-WRT v22
The Old Alchemy interface of DD-WRT v22

A setup simulation of the old alchemy interface can be found here:

This interface has been used in v22 and before, the new v23 and v24 interface has been completely redesigned and supports multiple languages and skins (take a look at the screenshot above)but you can still see the basic DD-WRT interface setup by viewing the simulation.
