Raw message 

I try this on a 1043nd V2 but it does not work.
This router is only beta support like many others so look at 
ftp://ftp.dd-wrt.com/betas/2016/

The main problem is that WAN is not working with this firmware, but it 
works great with openwrt, gargoyle, or the default tp-link.
I try it manual, and auto, but same results.

On manual it says wan ip 0.0.0.0 but on terminal it can ping websites!!! 

It must be a bug, or there is somewhere a setting that i cant find it out 
to separate lan from wan

If anyone got a solution i will be glad to test it again
