Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Click Apply If you have wireless security setup then click on the wireless security tab and setup the security mode and the password as you have it setup in the main router. If both routers support N then N-Only Channel Width: Full Wireless Network Name (SSID): your wifi network name Check the Advanced Network Configuration: Unbridged Multicasting Forwarding: Enabled IP Address: An IP address that is not in the range of DHCP and not being used by any other machine. Set to the fastest that is available on this router and your network. Click on the wireless tab and set: Wireless mode: Client Bridge (routed) Default GW Mode: Auto (DHCP) Wireless Network Mode: It will depend on this router and your main router. Now you will setup the wifi bridge mode to connect the DD-WRT router to your main router. You will have to go to your network settings on the computer and set your network connection to static IP and set the IP address to the same subnet as you just set the router to. Very important note: after you click Apply and the router restarts, if you set the router IP to a different subnet you will not be able to connect. If you click Save the configuration will be saved but will not go into effect. ![]() Make sure to click Apply button and not Save. All the other settings should be default. For example, if your LAN subnet is 192.168.0.x you may set the IP address to 192.168.0.149, Subnet mask to 255.255.255.0, gateway is 192.168.0.1(which is the IP of your main router) and Local DNS 192.168.0.1 (which is the IP of your main router). Make sure the IP address that you set is not part of the DHCP range in the DHCP server of main router. In the network setup you will have to set up your router with Static IP address. The connection type is set to Disabled Optional Settings leave default. In the basic setup screen you will have to setup the router static IP and disable DHCP. Below you may see the default DD-WRT basic setup screen after you reset. If your router has some custom settings from prior use it is best to reset it.

My main home router that is connected to the cable modem is Asus rt-n66r with stock firmware The router that I used for the wifi adapter is D-Link D600 with dd-wrt I also used TP-Link TL-WR702N which worked but gave me lower speed then the DLINK 1圎thernet cable Computer to setup the router as an adapter before connecting it to the PS3 You will need 5 Unique IP address that are not in the DHCP range and are not used by any other machine on the network.įirst, you will have to setup up your DD-WRT router with static IP. ![]() Here is a list of DD-WRT supported devices Here is my device list, but this instuctable should work with any router with the dd-wrt firmware. ![]() If you have a router which does not have DD-WRT installed then here is a great instructable on how to install it on WRT-54G router and it should work on most supported routers. To be able to set this up you would need a router with DD-WRT installed, to have some networking knowledge and is comfortable logging in to the router and changing/trouble shooting its settings. This instructable will work with any router that has dd-wrt installed on it. I didn't want to run any wires i chose to use a 802.1n router with DD-WRT to create a wireless adapter. Connect it directly to the router with a ethernet wire, wire up the PS3 to a second wifi router that supports faster speeds, connect it using ethernet over coaxial or power lines. There are few options to speed up the network speed on the PS3. It is good for netflix, but if you want to stream media from your DLNA server it is not fast enough for HD content. After doing network tests it only gave me at most 5mbps upload and download speed. The problem with PS3 is it has the 802.11b/g wifi card which is limited and slow. This is for those who are not ready to give up on their PS3.
