Linux router help needed

hi guys.
I have an Kaon router wich runs "Linux version 3.10.24-svn1480 (jskim@jake-205) (gcc version 4.4.7 (Realtek MSDK-4.4.7 Build 1459".
The problem I have it is that its firmware is in early stages and has alot of things messed up.
Wake on lan doesn't work without arp binding and that can be done only via telnet as it's webinterface doesn't have that option.
Its a workaround that works , unfortunately it only lasts untill I reboot the router.
What I was trying to accomplish is creating a script in /etc/init.d that runs the arp bind command.
That's where my troubles really began. I can't create or edit files in /etc/init.d (or /etc for that matter). The filesystem is Ready-only.

I have tried "mount -o remount, rw /" command and the / is still "ro"

here are my mounts. I managed to create a file inside /apps (though that doesn't help much as, as I need it in /etc/init.d

Code:

# mount
rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)
/dev/root on / type squashfs (ro,relatime)
proc on /proc type proc (rw,relatime)
ramfs on /var type ramfs (rw,relatime)
/dev/mtdblock5 on /apps type jffs2 (rw,relatime)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,relatime)

any ideeas?
thanks in advance.

       can be an IDE, SCSI, SATA, USB or FireWire connected optical drive. Not all SATA controller support all Plextor features.

       Linux:
       /dev/hdX: IDE device
       /dev/scdX: Linux 2.4: SATA, SCSI, USB device, or IDE device via ide-scsi emulation
       /dev/srX: Linux 2.6: IDE device via new ATA layer, SCSI or USB device
