What are some extra steps I can take to secure my network?

· ·

DD-WRT open source firmware removes many firmware vulnerabilities and backdoor access issues that may cause problems in stock firmware. DD-WRT is also updated more frequently than stock firmware, so be sure to always check with the FlashRouter support team to see which DD-WRT build we recommend for the highest level of security for your router at any time.

Aside from avoiding common issues and flaws with stock firmware, DD-WRT give you more control over the firmware settings and allows you to take some extra steps to really lock down your network security. In this article we highlight additional options for WiFi network security and also preventative measures for remote execution attacks.

Connect FlashRouter to Internet

· ·

All FlashRouters are compatible with all ISP service types such as fiber, cable, DSL, and satellite. As long as you have a modem, modem/router, or router capable of an ethernet connection your FlashRouter will have no problems connecting to the internet.

Internet Service Providers (ISP) include a modem or modem/router combo to connect your network devices to the internet. In some instances your ISP will provide a separate router as well as the modem. You can replace this router with a FlashRouter or use both in a dual router setup.

Single router setup

If you would like to replace your outdated router or avoid paying to rent a router from your ISP then you should use a FlashRouter as the only WiFi device in your network.

In a single router setup the FlashRouter will be wired directly to your modem via ethernet cable and will be the only router in the setup.

Connect to your ISP modem

Wire an ethernet cable from an open ethernet port on your modem to the WAN/internet port of the FlashRouter.

FlashRouters Single Router Setup

On Asus FlashRouters the WAN/internet port will be blue.

Asus Wifi Setup - back panel

On Linksys FlashRouters the WAN/internet port will be yellow.

Linksys Wifi Setup - back panel

On Netgear FlashRouters the WAN/internet port will be yellow.

Netgear Wifi Setup - back panel

Power cycle modem and router

Once you have properly connected an ethernet cable from your modem into the FlashRouter internet port you must power cycle your network devices to establish an internet connection.

  1. Power off your ISP modem and the FlashRouter.
  2. Power on the ISP modem and wait for it to fully boot up.
  3. Power on the FlashRouter.

Dual router setup

If you would like to keep your existing WiFi network in place, and simply want to add in a VPN WiFi network with a FlashRouter then you can do so using a dual router setup. No settings in your existing network router need to change to add a FlashRouter in a dual router setup. Since we preset all FlashRouters to a unique Local IP Address, there won’t be a conflict with your existing router.

In a dual router setup the FlashRouter is wired to your existing router via ethernet cable and you will have two completely segmented WiFi networks available.

Connect to your existing router

Remember if your existing router is connecting to the internet without issue already, make sure to keep the ethernet cable between your modem and existing router internet port in place.

Now connect another ethernet cable from a LAN/numbered port on your existing router to the WAN/internet port of the FlashRouter.

Reference the images above to see your WAN/internet port color.

FlashRouters Dual Router Setup

Power cycle all network devices

Once you have properly connected an ethernet cable from your existing router into the FlashRouter internet port you must power cycle your network devices to establish an internet connection.

  1. Power off your ISP modem, existing router, and the FlashRouter.
  2. Power on the ISP modem and wait for it to fully boot up.
  3. Power on the existing router and wait for it to fully boot up.
  4. Power on the FlashRouter.

Verify a successful internet connection

Once the power cycling steps are complete and the FlashRouter is powered up, start connecting your internet capable devices via ethernet or WiFi. Visit any website and make sure the page fully loads.

If you want to check your internet IP address that is visible to websites and services that you visit over the internet check out WhatIsMyIPAddress.com.

Why can’t I access router settings?

· ·

Be sure to first try the preset details to access your FlashRouter’s settings.

First time setup

Are you connected to the FlashRouter's network?

In order to access the FlashRouter’s settings you need to be connected to the FlashRouter’s network via ethernet or WiFi.

It is possible that if you are connected to the FlashRouter’s network you device might have static IP settings from a previous connection preventing it from being read correctly. Check your device’s static IP settings before proceeding.

Is your FlashRouter wired correctly?

Your FlashRouter should be wired as detailed in our Connect FlashRouter to the Internet setup.

A common mistake is to connect from your modem or other router to a LAN/numbered port of the FlashRouter instead of the WAN/Internet port of the FlashRouter as it should be. Doing so results in no access to the FlashRouter’s settings.

Lost access

How to find you FlashRouter's Local IP Address?

It is possible that your Local IP Address was changed at some point. Your Local IP Address is the address that you can access the FlashRouter’s settings with. We recommend finding the Local IP Address of the FlashRouter.

Was your FlashRouter reset?

If your FlashRouter is showing a local IP Address of 192.168.1.1 and you are seeing ‘dd-wrt’ as an available network in your wireless networks, your FlashRouter was reset. Reconfigure your FlashRouter.

Keep in mind that seeing a Local IP Address of 192.168.1.1 can also mean your are wired incorrectly and the router has not been reset. Be sure to check your wireless networks for ‘dd-wrt’. If the FlashRouter’s wireless network name appears as it was set then your FlashRouter was not reset and you should see the above section.

Tried updating firmware

Why can't I access my FlashRouter after a firmware upgrade?

When performing a firmware upgrade there is a dropdown that has Don’t Reset or Reset to Default settings as options.

If you accidentally selected Reset to Default settings you will need to reconfigure your FlashRouter.

If you had Don’t Reset selected and are still unable to connect to the FlashRouter’s network after a firmware upgrade, first make sure you are connected to the FlashRouter’s network as WiFi can disconnect during an upgrade, and then Reboot the FlashRouter.

How do I find my router local IP address?

· ·

The Local IP Address is the address that you can use to access a router’s firmware settings. Use the below instructions to find the local IP Address of the router you are connected to.

Make sure you are connected to the FlashRouter’s network via ethernet or WiFi. Keep in mind these instructions may vary based on your current software version.

Find IP Address in Windows

1.  Open the Window search box, and search “command prompt”

How to Find IP Address using Windows Command Prompt

2. Type “ipconfig” and press Enter.

3. Your router’s local IP address will be listed next to Default Gateway.

How to Find IP Address using Windows Command Prompt 2

Find IP Address in Apple / Mac

1. Open System Preferences, and select Network.

3. Select your current network.

How to Find IP Address on Android Device

4. Click on the gear next to Network Name (note this may be different on varying Android devices)
5. Click Advanced
6. Your router’s local IP address will be listed as the Gateway under Network Details.

Find Router IP on Android

Once you have followed these instructions to find the Local IP Address of the router you can enter the Local IP address in your web browsers URL to access the router’s firmware settings.

Why did my WiFi SSID change to ‘dd-wrt’?

· ·

If you are seeing ‘dd-wrt’ in your available wireless networks instead of your regular FlashRouter24 and FlashRouter50 wireless network names (SSID) this means the router has been reset to default DD-WRT firmware settings.

Follow our instructions for Resetting and Reconfiguring your FlashRouter to get setup again.

Do not confuse your SSID being replaced by ‘dd-wrt’ with ‘dd-wrt vap’ appearing alongside your regular wireless network names.

If you are seeing ‘dd-wrt vap’ it likely means you did not rename your network when attempting to setup a guest network.

My WiFi password is not working

· ·

Keep in mind that passwords are case sensitive.

The preset DD-WRT FlashRouter WiFi password is Wireless#[First 5 characters of your router MAC]. The router MAC can be found on the bottom of your router. For e.g. if your MAC is 1459C07E70A8 then your WiFi password is Wireless#1459C

Verify wireless password

Connect an ethernet cable from a numbered port on the FlashRouter to a computer and access the FlashRouter’s settings.

Navigate to Wireless > Wireless Security

Check the Unmask box and note the wireless password that is entered.

Verify the wireless settings

Make sure that you have WPA2 Personal / AES set as the security settings for all bands. For some router models make sure the CCMP-128 (AES) box is checked for all bands.

Forget network on your device

Wireless devices usually offer a “forget” network feature to remove a wireless network from the saved information of the wireless adapter. If you have updated your WiFi password and are trying to connect on a device that previously used the old WiFi password then removing the wireless network and then trying to connect fresh can help with this issue.

How do I change my Wireless Password?

· ·

Change the FlashRouter’s wireless network password to any password you like.

Navigate to Wireless > Wireless Security

Changing Wireless password in DD-WRT Wireless Security Settings
  1. Click Unmask next to the Shared Key field to see what you are typing and enter in the new wireless password you would like to use.
  2. Click Apply Settings.
  3. Reconnect to the wireless network using your new password.

How do I boost my Wireless Transmission power?

· ·

Boost the wireless transmission power if you need to increase the wireless range of the FlashRouter.

Important Information

We recommend reading the entry in the DD-WRT Wiki to familiarize yourself with what TX Power values represent.

Broadcom routers

  • Netgear R8500
  • Netgear R7000
  • Netgear R6400 V2
  • Netgear R6300 V2
  • Asus RT-AC5300
  • Asus RT-AC66U
  • Asus RT-AC56U

Navigate to Wireless > WL# or ath# Advanced

  1. Set the TX Power to the desired value.
  2. Click Apply Settings.
Boost TX Power in DD-WRT Advanced Wireless Settings page to Increase Wireless Transmission

Atheros routers

  • Netgear R9000
  • Netgear R7800
  • Linksys WRT3200ACM
  • LinksysWRT32X
  • Linksys WRT1900AC/v2/ACS
  • LinksysWRT1200AC

Navigate to Wireless > Basic Settings

  1. Check Advanced Settings under the wireless interface you would like to boost.
  2. Set the TX Power to the desired value.
  3. Click Apply Settings.
Boost TX Power in DD-WRT Advanced Wireless Settings page to Increase Wireless Transmission

We advise to proceed with caution when setting the TX Power. This has been known to negatively effect the hardware if set too high.

Why is my WiFi signal weak?

· ·

If you find that wireless signal strength is weak while connected to the FlashRouter’s network we recommend that you do the following:

  1. Make sure that you have the external antennas fully connected to the FlashRouter.
  2. “Forget” the wireless network on the device and then rejoin with a fresh connection. This will be different for each device but can be effective.
  3. Make sure you are within an appropriate range for the network you are using. Keep in mind that a 2.4GHz network will always have better range than 5GHz networks. Devices further away from the router should use the 2.4GHz network.
  4. Interference from your wireless environment can also cause this issue. On the Wireless > Basic Settings adjust the Wireless Channel for the network you are experiencing the issue for. Channel interference is a likely cause for weak signal strength.

Access FlashRouter DD-WRT firmware settings

· ·

You must be connected to the FlashRouter network via ethernet or WiFi connection on your device in order to be able to access the FlashRouter’s firmware settings.

Why do I need to access my FlashRouter's settings?

It is important to understand how to access your router if you want to:
  • Change WiFi or admin passwords
  • Switch VPN server locations
  • Attempt custom setups
  • Troubleshoot your network

Connect your device to the FlashRouter network

We recommend using a computer, tablet, or phone to access your FlashRouter firmware settings. You can connect your device to the FlashRouter via Ethernet Cable or Wireless connection.

Please note, you will NOT be able access the firmware settings unless you connect your device to the FlashRouter Network.

via Ethernet

Connect an Ethernet cable to your device’s Ethernet port.

Access FlashRouters DD-WRT Admin Settings via Ethernet Connection 1

Connect the other end of that Ethernet cable to a FlashRouter LAN/numbered port.

Access FlashRouters DD-WRT Admin Settings via Ethernet Connection 2

Be sure NOT to connect your device to the WAN/internet port of the FlashRouter. Please use the LAN/numbered ports to connect your devices.

via Wireless

Navigate to the available wireless networks in your device network settings and join any of the available FlashRouter networks – FlashRouter24, FlashRouter50, or FlashRouter80 (if you have a tri-band router).

Access the FlashRouter settings

We recommend using a Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox incognito/private browsing window to access the FlashRouter firmware settings. You can access the main DD-WRT firmware GUI or you can go directly into the FlashRouters Privacy App settings to manage your basic router settings and VPN connection settings right away.

Please note, after accessing the FlashRouter Settings at the Local IP Address, you will be prompted to enter an admin username and password. You can find this information in the subsections below.

DD-WRT - Firmware GUI

Local IP Address: 192.168.11.1

Username: flashrouter

Password: ddwrt

Keep in mind that if you enable HTTPS and disable HTTP access you will need to add https:// in front of the Local IP Address to access your FlashRouter’s firmware settings.

If your router has been reset for any reason then you can access the router at a local IP address of 192.168.1.1.

Please note you will be required to set the administration username and password as well as your WiFi and VPN network settings after a reset.

Why are devices disconnecting from Wireless?

· ·

If you find that wireless devices are routinely disconnecting from the FlashRouter’s network we recommend that you do the following:

  1. On the Wireless > Wireless Security page make sure you are using WPA2 Personal / AES as your security settings.
  2. On the Wireless > Basic Settings adjust the Wireless Channel. Select a wireless channel with less interference. The best channel will depend on your wireless environment.

How do I read my Wireless status?

· ·

The wireless status page is very helpful in diagnosing where a wireless issue stems from. Make sure the settings displayed on this page match the actual settings you have set in the DD-WRT Wireless settings. Review our recommended wireless settings for your FlashRouter if you are not getting accurate readouts.

Navigate to Status > Wireless

Interface

Select from the wireless interface that you want to view the readouts for.

MAC Address

Used to identify the wireless interface.

Chipset

Displays the wireless hardware that your FlashRouter uses.

Radio

Should always be set to Radio is On unless you have intentionally disabled the wireless on the FlashRouter. If this is displaying Radio is Off for certain wireless interfaces we recommend adjusting the Wireless Channel on the Wireless > Basic Settings page.

Mode

This should read as AP unless you are using an Advanced Wireless setup such as a Repeater, Client, or Repeater Bridge.

Network

Displays the wireless network mode that you have set for a specific wireless interface.

SSID

Displays the wireless network name that you have set for a specific wireless interface.

Channel

Displays the channel that you have set for a specific wireless interface. If this reads as Unknown it is best to select a new wireless channel or reboot the FlashRouter and check again.

TX Power

Displays the wireless transmit power that you have set for a specific wireless interface. If this reads as Unknown it is best reboot the FlashRouter and check again.

Rate

Displays an approximation of the max wireless speed available on a wireless band.

ACK Timing

Displays the ACK Timing that you have set for a specific wireless interface. If this reads as Unknown it is best reboot the FlashRouter and check again.

Encryption

Should always read as Enabled, WPA2 Personal.

Received (RX)

If this appears as 0% and there are no errors then it means that no devices have connected to the wireless interface yet. If this appears as 0% and the errors match the amount of OK packets you will need to adjust the wireless settings on the Wireless > Basic Settings page.

Transmitted (TX)

If this appears as 0% you will need to adjust the wireless settings on the Wireless > Basic Settings page.

What do the lights on my Roqos Core mean?

· ·

  1. White (looks blueish white on Teal colored Roqos Cores): System startup
  2. Solid Red: System is up, but there is no internet connection. Roqos Core cannot detect a network link either.
  3. Flashing Red: System is up and there is an ethernet cable connected to Internet port, however Roqos Core is unable to reach the internet. Usually happens with bad ethernet cable, or cable modem/ISP modem not giving IP address to Roqos Core due to ISP provisioning issues, or some other type of network setting blocking Roqos Core’s access to the internet. First thing to try in this scenario is to reboot the ISP router/modem upstream of Roqos Core.
  4. Flashing Blue: Roqos Core is up and connected to the internet, but it is not yet activated. Brand new Roqos Cores, or Roqos Cores that are factory reset will show this behavior when they are ready to be activated again.
  5. Blue (deep blue color, different from #1): Roqos Core is up and activated, everything is normal.

Linksys WRT1200AC DD-WRT WiFi Settings

· ·

Recommended DD-WRT WiFi settings for the Linksys WRT1200AC are based on extensive testing by FlashRouters. Please note that optimal settings may vary depending on external factors such as home size, interference, and the types of WiFi devices you are connecting in your network.

Screenshots below provide a visual display of recommended WiFi and encryption settings exactly as they appear in the Linksys WRT1200AC with DD-WRT firmware.

Navigate to the Wireless > Basic Settings to view or edit WiFi network settings.

Intimidated by all the available WiFi settings? The DD-WRT website provides extensive information about all of the available configuration options in the firmware. Learn about everything from Wireless channels to channel widths and more in the Basic Wireless Settings – DD-WRT Wiki.

WRT1200AC DD-WRT Wireless Security

The preset WRT1200AC FlashRouter WiFi password is Wireless#[First 5 characters of your router MAC]. The router MAC can be found on the bottom of your router. For e.g. if your MAC is 1459C07E70A8 then your WiFi password is Wireless#1459C

DNS Setup for DD-WRT FlashRouters

· ·

The Domain Name System (DNS) is the phonebook of the Internet. DNS resolves website domain names (www.website.com) to IP Addresses so you don’t have to remember the IP Address of every site you visit.

We setup each FlashRouter with Google DNS (8.8.8.8 , 8.8.4.4) and/or OpenDNS (208.67.220.220 , 208.67.222.222) to prevent your ISP DNS from leaking when connected to the FlashRouter.

By using a trusted DNS server like those listed below, or from your trusted VPN service provider, you can prevent ISP’S from compiling your browsing data and selling it to third parties without your consent.

Recommended DNS servers

GoogleDNS

Primary DNS: 8.8.8.8

Secondary DNS: 8.8.4.4

OpenDNS

Primary DNS: 208.67.220.220

Secondary DNS: 208.67.222.222

Cloudfare

Primary DNS: 1.1.1.1

Secondary DNS: 1.0.0.1

Level 3

Primary DNS: 209.244.0.3

Secondary DNS: 209.244.0.4

How to change the DNS on your FlashRouter

We preset each FlashRouter with GoogleDNS and OpenDNS so there is no need to change the DNS servers unless you have reset the FlashRouter or want to use different DNS servers.

Navigate to Setup > Basic Setup

DNS Setup on DD-WRT FlashRouters
  1. Scroll down to Network Address Server Settings (DHCP).
  2. Enter in any combination of valid DNS servers into Statict DNS fields 1, 2, and 3.
  3. Click Apply Settings at the bottom of the page.
  4. Power cycle your FlashRouter off and back on.

DNS Leak Test

We recommend checking to see if your DNS is leaking when using VPN.

CLICK APPLY SETTINGS

Leave all settings not mentioned above as their default setting.

Verify a successful VyprVPN connection

Navigate to the Status > OpenVPN

  1. You should now see a CONNECTED SUCCESS message.
  2. Visit to WhatIsMyIPAddress to verify your new IP address and virtual location.

In some cases you may notice that the location is not showing the same location as the server you have input in your router settings; this is because geo tracking tools are often tricked by VPN connections. As long as you see an IP address that is not the same as your normal Internet IP address then you are indeed connected to VyprVPN.

Back up your settings

Navigate to Administration > Backup

  1. Click the Backup button.
  2. A file named nvrambak.bin will be saved to your computer.
  3. You can load nvrambak.bin to restore your settings in the event of a reset.

How to change the VyprVPN server

  1. Copy the new VyprVPN server address from the above server list.
  2. Paste the server into the Server IP/Name field and Click Apply Settings.
