Can I block certain services (f.e. disable Bittorrent traffic), IP/MAC addresses or web sites?

To block certain services (ports) or MAC addresses, you must use iptables, because the built-in access restrictions in the router is only working when chillispot disabled. For example to block certain IPs from the router, go to Administration > Commands > Firewall section then press Edit then add a new line with: /usr/sbin/iptables -I FORWARD -d IPADDRESS -j DROP (replace IPADDRESS with the ipaddress that you’d like to block) then press Save firewall. To block a specific port, write: /usr/sbin/iptables -I FORWARD -dport “port number” -j DROP For more information please visit: www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Iptables www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Port_Blocking You can find more iptables examples on the following pages: Basics: http://www.howtoforge.com/linux_iptables_sarge Advanced: http://iptables-tutorial.frozentux.net/iptables-tutorial.html#HOWARULEISBUILT http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/wiki/index.php/Quick_HOWTO_:_Ch14_:_Linux_Firewalls_Using_iptables or do a google search on ipta
