Deleted LAN interface

Hello Everyone,

I am kind of new to OpenWrt. Today mistakenly I pressed the Delete button on the lan interface and it was written marked for deletion I couldn't undo the change so I clicked apply and save. After that, I am unable to log in to Luci. I have tried a Wi-Fi connection, and ethernet connection and also tried to login using ssh but no luck at all. I can still see my Wifi network, but it has no internet connection. I just cannot login to Luci anymore. Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks

Reset it....?

I tried it already. I pressed the reset button, all LED flashed at the same time, router restarted but nothing changed. I still cannot login and I still can see my wifi network. That means the reset didn't work. Is there any specific way to reset the router? I am using Tplink AC1750.

In the future, if you mistakenly change something you do not want to save, just reboot.
If you reboot OpenWrt will warn you that there are changes that will not be applied if you reboot without saving them.

Thanks. Totally forgot about that part.

Or better yet, revert the changes in LuCI... click the Unsaved changes at the top right and then Revert...
