Locked myself out of the router

Installing and Using OpenWrt Network and Wireless Configuration
1

Hi, I'm new to OpenWRT and I'm locked out of my house.

The original purpose of creating vlan is that I want to create guest wifi (VLAN 4) and internal wifi (VLAN 99), I don't know if this is the right way to do it. Here is the process I did:

  • I went to Network -> Interface, and selected the device tab.
  • Next, I selected the br-lan configuration to enable VLAN filtering to add VLAN 4 and VLAN 99:
    1. With lan 1: 4 and 99 both tag
    2. With lan 2: 99 untag and PVID
  • Back to the interface tab:
    1. I created a new guest interface with the device br-lan.4 and IP address 172.16.86.1, enabled DHCP and selected the Firewall Guest that I created earlier (only for internet access, not for router or other zones)
    2. I went to the existing lan interface and changed the device to br-lan.99
  • Finally, I went to Network -> Wireless:
    1. Select Edit for 2.4GHz and select Guest in the Network section.
    2. Apply and save.
  • I did not Edit for 5GHz, which I originally intended to be my internal network.
    Is there any way I can get back into my router.

Thank you so much
