Hi
I can enable TOR in proxy mode and it seems to work fine but when I disable it all access to the router is lost GUI/telnet and SSH, although internet access seems to remain until the router is rebooted - had to reboot into alternate partition and reinstall DD-WRT on original partition. This has happened twice on both of last two updates - haven't tried with today's update as I cant afford the time to fix it again today - has anyone else seen the same problem?

How did you reboot on the alternate partition? The 3x switch on/off doesn't seem to work for me.

I think I had that problem the first time and kept trying and eventually it came back - try the reset button as well.I cant remember exactly what got me through the first time but it did take me a while. NDPI also seems broken now so I have gone back to Gargoyle as it was the NDPI I really wanted in DD-WRT.

with no ssl or telnet connection in this instance (this is what happened to me) if the three switch method doesn't work you are stuck without a serial connection.

the on/off process will work eventually, you just have to keep at it. try a cpl of times with 3 * on/off. if it doesn't work, add one, and add one everytime it doesn't work. i have gone up to as high as 12 * on/off. but it eventually flips partitions.
