blocking an outbound port range

[buff a muff]

HELLLOOOO,

On WHP 300N , using the professional DD-WRT config, how can I block an outbound LAN to WAN port range like 444-65535 ??/ 

I tried but have not been able to configure it for this need. Is there a proprietary code in the professional software that disallows this ??

Still need help here !!

As far as i know i don't remember seeing anything that has to do with port blocking on the UI in the routers. You have to do commands to do port blocking.

The command you will do is "iptables -I FORWARD 1 -p tcp --dport 444:65535 -j DROP"

Thanks so much for the response. A couple of questions come up.
1) Instead of FORWARD, could OUTPUT be used ?
2) Instead of --dport, could --sport be used ? Since the ports I seek to block are LAN to WAN.
3) If wanting to drop a range of udp ports say 444:65535; would the comand be; 
iptables -I FORWARD 2 -p udp --dport 444:65535 -j DROP ?
