Tomato Firmware on Dell TrueMobile router

After frustrating experience with OpenWRT and DD-WRT, I eventually flashed Tomato firmware into my Dell TrueMobile wireless router. Need a bit settings to get some lights on, but even without additional settings, it works great! Best of all, QoS worked perfect. Now I can make VoIP phone calls, Web browsing, P2P download and streaming at the same time, and everyone is happy.

Tomato firmware does not officially support Dell TrueMobile 2300, but it works well.

DNS Secondary Server using CentOS

Install DNS server Bind:

yum install bind

Create named.conf in /var/named/chroot/etc, using domain accountingshow.com on primary dns server 199.199.133.99 for example. Secondary DNS server IP is 199.199.133.97

// Red Hat BIND Configuration Tool
// Default initial "Caching Only" name server configuration

options { directory "/var/named";
  allow-notify {199.199.133.97;};
  recursion no;
};

zone "accountingshow.com" IN {
type slave;
file "slaves/mydomain.com.dns";
masters { 199.199.133.99 port 53;};
};
check-names ignore;

zone "133.246.199.in-addr.arpa" IN {
type slave;
file "slaves/133.199.199.in-addr.arpa.dns";
masters { 199.199.133.99
port 53;};
check-names ignore;
};


include "/etc/rndc.key";

Reload the configuration file:

rndc reload
