Hi guys; i need help on how to config a secure wep on DD-WRT Software on Buffalo WHR-HP-G54 i was able to flash it with v24-sp2 build 13521 i was able to get the DD -WRT going by doing the Hard reset 30x30x30 and change password to name: admin and Password:root and changed to wireless setting and now it works on wireless but it doesn't work on wan cable,so i can't set it to a secure Wep,also when i changed to the wireless my user name pop up asking password with 11 ca raters long, which i don't know.pics attachment ,

Please upload your picture to somewhere like TinyPic.com, as the attachment is too small to see.
 
They're still too small. Take a new screenshot and upload it to TinyPic.com

What's the question for the first screenshot? I see your wireless client connected with 95% signal (apparently it's like right on top of your router :P)

Can you explain what doesn't work on WAN cable means? Your modem should run into the router's WAN port, and one of the LANs runs to your NIC. If you've got it wired up some other way that's likely the problem.

Also, WEP is only slightly better than unsecured. If you can I would use WPA.

Thanks Cromewell: i have Good news: I was able to figure out this DD-WRT configuration on the Buffalo WHR-HP-G54,and Updated the Firmware from build 13521 to build 21286, and i've set up a Secure WPA2 and you know what All my wireless machines work great and have a very good Wireless signal,i almost screwed everything if i went with Tomato that has no secure we-pa,besides i probably would brick the router.so i'm very stubborn never give up that's lots of work but that pays off.

i bought this Buffalo WHR- router 5 years ago for 60 bucks at Amazon and Flashed DD-WRT firmware,but i could never make it work ,so i put it on my scrap, to tell you the truth i thought i had bricked it,and could never get it to Factory Buffalo Firmware,all this because of lack of understanding English and DD-WRT configurations of Firmware and software,besides i went with the Crappy Verizon DSL and Phone and with Verizon Routers never needed another wireless router,so by necessity i just started to reed and Google about the matter,and at this time i understand a little more about Computers and software and that helped a little bit as so the clues i've got from forums like badcaps forum.
I've resorted last to Buffalo cause i tried to Use these Routers that i also had in my scrap, but could never do a secure Wep or WPA ,Toshiba WRC_1000, Net gear WNR2000,
Belkin F6D4230-4 v1, these old routers only worked ok on my old machines open Secure protection,and i had to shutoff the routers when in use with wireless to avoid worse damage by someone using my Wireless,also these routers open secure only gave me 4gbits out of the 3,
 
Since you have DD-WRT you should crank up your WIFI power now. Not too much otherwise it will generate heat and wear out the chip. 100 mW is good.

Kind of pointless to do this without a site survey or real goal. A lot of times you'll just increase the coverage area and be more susceptible to CSMA/CA problems such as the wifi router backing off when hearing clients outside of your wireless client's coverage area.

Agent Smith;i have enough strength signal now , with DD-WRT software and secure WPA,i checked the wireless speed before with other routers like WRC_1000,Belkin f6d4230, with 4G, now with WRT i have 10G out of 30G on wire or wireless on the main AAris TG862.
