Lynwood, Please tell me more about your version of DD-WRT. I have: Firmware: DD-WRT v24-sp2 (08/07/10) std, and it does not pass IPIP rip packets, unless I enable DMZ. ------Clip---- It's noted that IPIP does not traverse firewalls, that is not the case with me, as I am traversing two firewalls to reach my Gateway server, both devices using using DD-WRT, and it appears to broadcast any packet that is not UDP or TCP. ......
