Hi Guys,
I wonder if someone can help me. I know it was here that i got help last time to sort my ddwrt with something.
I have searched the ddwrt wiki and there instructions do not work.
Scenario: I have a network running at home that consists of wired and wireless networks which includes games consoles, tv's, dreamboxes and so on. Fairly straightforward nothing too complex. There is a modem (sly router). Connected to that is another router which i have flashed ddwrt and everything is connected to that.
I am now leaving this place, parents will still be living here. When i need to peform reboots and changes to some of the systems i need to be able to logon remotely. I thought about getting one of them microservers and putting it on the DMZ or even getting a raspberry pie and putting that on the DMZ but i know that you can set up vpn on ddwrt router so thought why not.
What i want to acheieve: I want the network to still remain secure and firewall to be on. I want to set up the router as a VPN with username and password to be able to logon to it. Maybe even log onto each of the devices that are switched on through there and do reboots or do work on them.
1) I this possible?
2) how do i do it?
3) is this the best method or am i better off getting a raspberry pie and leaving that on the DMZ?
If it helps, this is the firmware version i am running:
DD-WRT v24-sp2 (11/21/10) std
Also the sly router is totally open, no firewall no nothing. All the security is done on the ddwrt. It is just acting as a hub. I have switched wifi off on it (the sly router).
