Hi, I am new in networking and OpenWRT. I flashed my router with OpenWRT a week ago. I am dealing with a small home network. Thus, I do not need IPv6 addresses in my home network. Now I have the following problem. From the LuCi I can see that wifi clents get IPv4 addresses and wired clients (Synology) get IPv6 address. Can anyone give me a hint how to set IPv4 to the wired clients. It would be a way better if I can generally get rid of IPv6 within the internal network. How it is handled?
There's a typo in there, right?
I am sorry, English language is not the best skill. What do you mean? Where the typo is?
For your DHCP server issue, SSH into the OpenWrt router and execute the following commands:
uci set 'dhcp.lan.dhcpv6=disabled'
uci commit dhcp
/etc/init.d/odhcpd stop; /etc/init.d/odhcpd disable; /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart
Disabling IPv6 entirely requires more work...
Thank you. I will try it in a moment. By the way as frollic mentioned there was a typo. I just found this. The problem in the sentence (already edited) "Can anyone give me a hint how to set IPv4 ...
That didn't help. Now I can't see wired clients anymore. Seems they didn't get addresses
What kind of clients are they?
Would be weird if they had ipv4 switched off.
There is only one client - Synology NAS. It works perfectly with another router, which has its own TP-Link operating system. So, the problem is probably not at the client.
I was stupid. The problem is solved, thanks to @pavelgl. I found that the ip on the Synology was set static. I've got connection to the Synology. The tred can be closed.
