I think you want the forward chain, im not sure what tools dd-wrt and |
101 |
iptables has for it as more of my experience is pf and pfsense, but |
102 |
their should be a way to forward packets headed for certain ports or |
103 |
networks to the ADSL gateway. just have the rule listen on the |
104 |
internal interface and redirect certain traffic to the other gateway |
