I've been using Tomato forever but the wireless just isn't up to snuff for me and with 5ghz never working or needing a reboot constantly, i'm in the market for Merlin firmware.

With that, I have a couple of Parameters i just don't have it in me to copy over. I'd like to copy over "Static assigned Addresses/names over to the Merlin reflashed N66u. Is this possible to copy over via CLI from Tomato to Merlin?

In particular, I'm looking at the Static assigned addresses and Ports I have forwarded. No way i can enter all that again...lol

THanks!

Edit: will this work in the Asus Merlin?

nvram export --set | grep dhcpd_static

Don't. There's no guarantee we store our settings in the same format, even if sometimes we have the same variable names.
 
I suggest you use that tomato export to create a new config file which you will use for maintenance.

dhcp.txt
<XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX>192.168.1.200>nas
<XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX>192.168.1.201>ps3
...

and a script to submit the change.

dhcp_commit
sed ':a;N;$!ba;s/\n//g' dhcp.txt > dhcp_staticlist.txt
nvram set dhcp_staticlist=`cat dhcp_staticlist.txt`
nvram commit
rm dhcp_staticlist.txt
