Hi. I have an Asus RT-N16 router with Tomato-K26USB-1.28.RT-MIPSR2-101-AIO firmware - (Router A) 
Some Tenda router (Router B) 
Another Tenda (Router C) 
With the topology: 
 
                    INTERNET 
 -ZYXEL P650HW adsl modem/router (set to bridge mode) 
    - Router A (WAN IP lets say 75.75.75.75, VLAN1 IP 10.0.0.138, VLAN2 IP 192.168.1.1) 
       - Router B (WAN IP 192.168.1.2, LAN IP 192.168.10.1) 
       - Router C (WAN IP 192.168.1.3, LAN IP 192.168.3.1)  
 
As you can see, router A has two virtual LANs where router X (not in the schema, not important) is in VLAN1 and B and C are in VLAN2. 
 
I am trying to forward two ports on router A so I can access router B and C webadmin interface from outside. So I set router A remote admin port to 8091, router B remote admin port to 8092, router C remote admin port to 8093. 
 
On router A I set the port forwarding for port 8092 to IP address 192.168.1.2 and 8093 to 192.168.1.3 
 
When I type the IP 75.75.75.75:8091 in the browser from outside, it works and I can get into the tomato remote admin interface. Still fine. 
BUT when I try to get to router B (75.75.75.75:8092) I get one redirection to 75.75.75.75:8092/login.asp and then a redirection to 192.168.10.1/login.asp which is surely not accessible from outside. 
The same with router C. 
 
Can you please point me what I am doing wrong? 
 
Is it the bad tomato setting or something with the router B or C? 
I also tried to disconnect B and C for a while while trying to access them but I still got redirected to theirs LAN ip's, so I think it's something wrong in router A (tomato) setting. 
 
Thank you for any help. |

Connection to [WAN-IP]:8093 work? 
 
By the way - what is the reason for the VLAN? Separation B and C from A network? |

No.. the result is the same when connecting to router C from outside with WAN ip address and port 8093. I am redirected to 192.168.3.1. 
 
It is the redirect request (HTTP 302) to the browser.. I've never seen this beahvior before. I think the forwarding should be transparent for outside scope. 
 
The reason for a VLAN is that I need to separate VLAN1 from VLAN2. VLAN 1 runs the small office and VLAN 2 runs a home network for few apartments. |

You don't need VLANs to separate network A,B and C. 
Try the foolowing... 
 
INTERNET 
 -ZYXEL P650HW adsl modem/router (set to bridge mode) 
    - Router A (WAN IP lets say 75.75.75.75, LAN IP lets say 192.168.1.1) - router in "normal" mode - without VLANs 
 
         - Router B (WAN IP 192.168.1.10, LAN IP 10.0.0.1) 
           with this script in Administration\Scripts\Firewall: 
           iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -s 10.0.0.0/16 -d 192.168.0.0/16 -j DROP 
 
         - Router C (WAN IP 192.168.1.20, LAN IP lets say 10.0.0.1 too) 
           with this script in Administration\Scripts\Firewall: 
           iptables -t nat -I PREROUTING -s 10.0.0.0/16 -d 192.168.0.0/16 -j DROP

Can I do QOS and/or bandwith limiting without VLANs too? (understand, I want to limit only a VLAN for the apartments. The office must have the top priority) 
 
By the way, consider the following: 
The router B and C are in the apartments, so the person in the apartment can easilly reboot B or C when needed. But he can also easilly disconnect B or C from the cable and connect there his laptop to get directly to the 192.168.0.0/16 subnet so the iptables won't help, right? |

You're right. I never thought that a person with an apartment can have such ideas and opportunities. 
In this case, it may better to use VLAN. 
 
I tested a long time ago to create a VLAN from the command line (Tomato 1.28) 
As here: http://catsmacsandhacks.blogspot.com/...omato.html 
I remember that it worked fine (after some adjustment) but the more I liked the solution with iptables. 
 
You can try as described in the above link. 
If you check this solution faster than I do - please write about it. 
 
I'll try to remember my solution and port forwarding in that case. If it works I'll write about it :) 
 
P.S. 
Of course, you can configure bandwidth limiting - on Router A or B and C. |

I looked inside the logs today to find out if there is something about the redirection. I donwnloaded the iptables too, but there is no entry for the LAN ip address of router B nor C.  
 
Is there a way to find out if tomato causes the redirection problem or Tenda routers? When I connect to WAN ip of B or C from the 192.168.1.1 subnet, everything works fine. The problem is when I try to access remote admin from outside. |

When you send ping from 192.168.1.* to WAN B (192.168.1.2)  you have response from 192.168.1.2 or from 192.168.10.1? |
