[SOLVED] How to set my WRT150N with DD-WRT as a simple switch?

Here is what I have

Primary router: 2Wire with default gateway 192.168.2.1 with connection type PPPoE. Internet works with all computers connected (wired or wireless) to it.

Secondary router: Linksys WRT150N with DD-WRT firmware

I've followed all the instructions here:

http://www.dd-wrt.com/wiki/index.php/Switch

and yet, when I connect a cable from my primary router to the secondary router on the LAN 2 port and a cable from the secondary router LAN 1 port to a computer, I still can't get the Internet. Help please.

Oh wait, sorry, nvm, when I waited for long enough, it started working. I guess there was some internal things to be set after I connect the cable from the primary router to the secondary router that takes quite some time.
