So in anticipation for my VDSL install on Christmas Eve, I went out and bought a Vigor DV130. So far the modem syncs 2-3mbps faster and does bridge mode perfectly.

My problem however, is while using bridge mode, I have lost connectively to my modem via HTTP for administration.

so my Modem is on 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0

My router (DD-WRT) is on 192.168.2.1/255.255.255.0

How can I assign a static route to allow me to make changes to my modems settings (or check my WAN connection speed) going via my LAN?

I have no idea why, but for some reason its just jumped back into life.

These are the commands that ended up working for me: 

ifconfig `nvram get wan_ifname`:0 192.168.1.10 netmask 255.255.255.0

iptables -t nat -I POSTROUTING -o `nvram get wan_ifname` -j MASQUERADE



Which now, makes sense. I believe the vigor DV130 has a a virtual interface by default that is allocated the 192.168.1.2 address... the only reason I can think of why it didn't work.
