dd-wrt Setup and Services tabs
I don't find dd-wrt's "Basic Setup" instructions (http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/OpenDNS#Intercept_DNS_Port) all that basic; I'm surely missing something. Option 1 on that page refers to a Setup tab and Option 2 mentions a Services tab. What are these tabs referring to? It instructs you to go to those tabs but gives no preface to where to find those tabs--in what program or configuration setting, etc. It mentions DNS, DHCP, and DNSMasq, so I'm assuming it's probably one of those, but I'm not sure which nor how to access these services. Since it's "basic," I would expect a few more details.

Thank you for the comment, Brian. User "papertrail" on forums.opendns.com/comments.php?DiscussionID=14356 gave the advice to go to the link above. He/she did mention "if you have dd-wrt fw installed on your router," but being completely new to the subject, I was left to assume that the instructions therein should be available on some OpenDNS screen. Live and learn to do the digging yourself. It would have been less confusing if the comment had also given the reference to the installation information.
I was able to install the firmware successfully and the wireless functions of my network were working just fine. However, after putting the OpenDNS settings in the router, I can't even browse to the router's control panel. Any ideas what's going on and what to do about it?

Check that you followed the right instructions: http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/OpenDNS
"I can't even browse to the router's control panel."

What exactly happens if you try this?
