Network Diagnostics in Client Mode?

Installing and Using OpenWrt
1

Hi,

i installed my LEDE-Router in "Client Mode" as described in the Quick Start Guide and connected it through one of the LAN ports to my main router.

Everything works as expected, except the "Network Diagnostics" and downloading Package List and Packages through the webinterface and retrieving the Time via ntp.

Can i get this working?

It sounds like DNS is not working for your device.

Try adding the main router's IP into /etc/config/network, under the LAN device section:

option dns 192.168.1.1

Thanks, but DNS is not the problem.
The router works in client mode as WLAN repeater, including DNS.
Everything works on my laptop, i get IPs and can surf and ssh to the internet.

But i can not even ping the default gateway IP from the router itself, although it's working and set correct.
