Typed commands info please

[mightyoakbob]

Hi,

Could someone point me at information on how to type commands into an RT-N66U. I keep seeing people say to type this or that that but not where/how.

In particular how can I save my static DHCP settings so they are easy to put back after an upgrade and factory reset?

Where is the data saved to and how do I get it out of the router?

I've also seen references to a wikki but google shows me quite a few, which one would talked about here?

Thanks for your help.


Bob.

you need to ssh into your router using a client such as putty. Once you are ssh'd in you can run the following command to get your Static DHCP entries

nvram get dhcp_staticlist


If you need to re-enter that if it gets lost you can run the following command


nvram set dhcp_staticlist="all the output from the command above"
nvram commit
