A quick search on the forum suggests to perform a reset using a special button. Here it is the first link: Cf-e314n - flashing openwrt / lede

I was just referring to this sentence:

#5

the gateway is not 192.168.10.1

  1. hold the the reset button
  2. try 192.168.1.1
  3. if that do not work, try to change the ethernet port, one is lan, the other is wan.
    don't warry it's not bricked, but you need also understand that device is in snapshot so no web interface.

sorry SteMax97 wrong tag, not sure how edit that

I assume you have a main router and then the comfast device. The main router is connected to fiber / cable or something similar, right?
If so, connecting the ethernet cable from your router to the WAN interface of the comfast should provide you internet access (by default wan interface uses DHCP). Try that. The result is a double nat, not the best solution in the world but enough for now.
Then, as said, you don't have any web interface. This is because you downloaded a snapshot and no t a stable release. You can however install a web interface on the device. First of all, download putty and read how to use it. (How to use PUTTY: https://www.ssh.com/ssh/putty/windows)

Connect your PC to the comfast (to the LAN port, NOT THE WAN) via an ethernet cable. Your pc should get an ip address (in the range 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.254). You can check in Windows Networking section.
Try to connect with PUTTY using 192.168.1.1 as ip, root as username. There is no password.
If you manage to get through, try writing " opkg update " and then " opkg install luci uhttpd " and then you may need to write " /etc/init.d/uhttpd start ". You find a better guide on the Openwrt website.

You now have your web interface.
