Can't ping/ tracert

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

So I sysupgrade to 24.xx-rc ( while retaining current config ) and while I can surf the net I can't seem to ping/ tracert any sites let alone opkg update to retrieve and view my packages

my ubus call system board

{
        "kernel": "6.6.63",
        "hostname": "raspberrypi",
        "system": "ARMv8 Processor rev 3",
        "model": "Raspberry Pi 4 Model B Rev 1.5",
        "board_name": "raspberrypi,4-model-b",
        "rootfs_type": "ext4",
        "release": {
                "distribution": "OpenWrt",
                "version": "24.10.0-rc1",
                "revision": "r28158-d276b4c91a",
                "target": "bcm27xx/bcm2711",
                "description": "OpenWrt 24.10.0-rc1 r28158-d276b4c91a",
                "builddate": "1732901136"
        }
}

my cat /etc/config/network

config interface 'lan'
        option device 'br-lan'
        option proto 'static'
        option ipaddr '192.168.100.196'
        option gateway '192.168.100.1'
        option netmask '255.255.255.0'
        option ip6assign '60'
        option dns '192.168.100.1'
        list dns '1.1.1.1'
        list dns '8.8.4.4'

Odd that I can surf the net yet can't download pkgs or ping sites from ssh or web gui

What is the ip address info of your computer or phone (not the pi)? Specifically, what is the ip address, subnet mask, gateway/router, and dns.

I also see an error here....
Specifically, this line:

it should be:

        list dns '192.168.100.1'

But I'm not sure that this will solve the issue.

It didn't. Had to revert to current stable version of OpenWRT

5

Is LAN your only network?

Or did you omit any remaining network config?

This looks like to be setup as a DumbAP, is DNSMasq running for DNS?

If not you have to disable local use:

uci set dhcp.@dnsmasq[0].localuse='0'
uci commit dhcp

Otherwise the router cannot resolve DNS

Well there was the docker network setup. The configurations were carried over from the previous version of OpenWRT (23.xx) when I did a sysupgrade to 24.xx so I was not sure why it was such an issue. I just reverted back to 23.xx
