Hello, I have a small problem, that I suspect a DNS problem. My OpenWRT stands behind the ISP router (which is producing a local network 192.168.1.x). My OpenWRT lan is 10.0.0.x, my OpenWrt wireless 10.137.0.x ; Internet works great, from lan and wireless.
But somehow accessing the ISP router itself does not work as expected: if I ask in firefox/chrome htpps://192.168.1.254 (=admin webpage of ISP box) I get "server not found". Ping does work,though. For some reason, the browser translates 192.168.1.254 in " mabbox.bytel.fr " and does not find it. Actually the google DNS does not find it neither. I guess it is a stupid "local" DNS name that the ISP-box generates. How can I acces this page now? Thank you
Thx, pwned. The WAN interface has two IP's, one in the ISP network (192.168.1.X) one "internal" in the 10.X.Y.Z range right? Which one do I have to use ?
If you look at the WAN interface on OpenWrt box' Webinterface you can see a line called: IPv4.
The IP after that is the IP/Gateway address of your WAN interface. Usually it has 1 IPv4 address only.
Since ping works it seems the problem isn't routing but that the ISP box seems to redirect 192.168.1.254 to mabbox.bytel.fr. In that case the solution is to add the hostname mabbox.bytel.fr with IP address 192.168.1.254 to OpenWrt (or to the clients).
