That which is most obviously correct, beyond any need of checking, it
usually the problem.

Why so complexicated? What are you trying to accomplish with this? If
these are 3 seperate customers that require isolation, you can
accomplish the same thing by simply putting everyone on the same Class
C subnet, and enabling "AP isolation" on the routers. AP Isolation is
a lousy term for blocking any wireless to wireless traffic. It's
kinda tricky to find the setting. See:
<http://www.informatione.gmxhome.de/DDWRT/Standard/V23final/Wireless_Advanced.html>
It's in the middle of the page. Note that this is sometimes refered
to as "client isolation" in the DD-WRT forums, which a more accurate
term.

Connected how? Wired or wireless?
Which one has the internet connection attached?

Make my life easy and kindly supply the routeing table.
Login with telnet and run:
route -e -n
on two connected routers. Once it's untangled on two routers, we can
talk about adding the others.

Yech. IP table are for firewall rules, not for routing.
If you must route between subnets, use a static route to the remote
gateway (IP address of remote router). Something like this:
From the 192.168.110.1 router:
route add -net 192.168.111.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.111.1
and on the other end:
route add -net 192.168.110.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 gw 192.168.110.1
However, these probably will not work because I have no clue where you
connect this pretzel to the internet. You will need to assign a
default gateway (default route) that points to the router that has the
internet connection.
route add default gw 192.168.110.1
or something like that.

It's possible. However, I did have some problems with static routes
on DD-WRT v23 SP2. I went to v23 SP3 and they were fixed. I recently
moved most everything to v24 RC4 but have not retested (or had any
complaints).

Bridging doesn't know anything about IP addresses or routing. I don't
wanna speculate, mostly because you've been tinkering with the
forwarding and IP tables.
>Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated.
Put IP_tables back to where they belong. Concentrate on the routing
tables. Keep track of where you point your default gateways.
