wl-500gP / Oleg / dnsmasq problem

[jim-easterbrook]

I'm using a wl-500gP with oleg's firmware to provide network access for a PVR that only has USB connectivity, and it's all working happily.

As the wl-500gP is the only box on my small network that's on all the time (apart from my ADSL modem), I thought it would be useful to run DNS and DHCP servers on it. I installed dnsmasq 2.39-1 using ipkg, but when I try to run it I get "dnsmasq: failed to create listening socket: Protocol not available".

Any ideas on how to get it working?

I have exact the same Problem!

Hi soft-worker

I saw your thread in the German Discussion area, and understood enough of it. My next problem is how to enable DHCP when the Asus is in AP mode. I think I've found an answer, but haven't had time to try it yet.
