I've been using DD-WRT Tomato Firmware v1.27.8744 vpn3.6 ND USB VPN on an ASUS WL-520GU wireless G router. Its been working great for over a year now. I came home from work this afternoon and none of my devices could access the router wirelessly (iphones, and laptop). It doesn't even show up in the SSID list (the router is broadcasting)

Reboot of the router, cable modem, still nothing.

Connect to the router wired on my laptop and have no issues logging into the web interface. I disable the radio and restart it. Change ssid, still not able to connect wirelessly. Make sure its broadcasting. The router shows up in the windows ssid list when I'm connected wired but it disappears from the list once I remove the wired connection.

Very weird issue. I checked the logs and when I try to connect wirelessly there is no DHCP request. The radio site survey works fine so I assume the radio is working ok.

Can anybody help? Or direct me to some possible info.

were you running it overclocked or anything that would cause it to fail prematurely?

Surge protector (storms here last night) and the regular culprits?
