According to the manual it's on the Administration page.as there is no entry for the ntp server to use, etc.

I don't really understand your device configuration as you called it "Ethernet mode". But I'd guess that the client data is just traversing the bridge (br0) so it's not really going "through" the Asus. And hence the Asus itself doesn't really need to be particularly functional.Thanks, that worked, I thought the default route was there since how else would it get the packet to the router as wouldn't it DHCP the info?
I'm not aware of any way to do that with stock Asus firmware.Now where do I put the default gw so that when I reboot, it will stick instead of having to do it manually each time? Thanks!
The flash command doesn't exist on Merlin supported routers because they use a completely different code base. There is however an "nvram" command.Was looking at this, does your "flash" command actually have all the options?

# flash
Usage:
flash -r <offset> -c <count> - read <count> bytes from <offset>
flash -w <offset> -o <value> - write <offset> with <value>
flash -f <start> -l <end> - erase from <start> to <end>
Note:
<count> is decimal, the other parameters are hexadecimal
# flash all

Yes that's what I was referring to. The routers that Merlin supports (whether using his or stock firmware) is based on Broadcom chipsets. Your EA-N66R uses Ralink, it's a different code base.I meant with the original ASUS firmware.
