Newbie problem - trying to understand the next step

I have two wi-fi routers - old one and new one. I want to create a wi-fi network on a new one and stop using the old one completely. I have installed OpenWRT on the new one using the TRX method described here:
https://openwrt.org/toh/asus/tuf-ax6000
After installing the firmware I followed the instructions and rebooted the router and when I go to 192.168.1.1 I get the web console of my old router (duh). I know it said to change the computer's ip to 192.168.10.1 in the support forum, but I have no idea what it means. I can ssh to the new router by connecting to its lan port with ethernet cable, and it shows the OpenWRT screen and I can use opkg, but it doesn't seem to be connecting to the internet, the led lights are on, what am I supposed to do at this point? The next step is supposed to be sysupdate, but I can't access the web console.

Edit the LAN side IP, in Openwrt, change it to 192.168.2.1 (or .10.1, or something that isn't 192.168.1.1).

You can manually edit the /etc/config/network file.

If you want to stop using the old router completely, switch it off.

Thank you, guys! I unplugged the old router, connected the new one and was able to access web interface and do the sysupdate following the instructions. But now I don't have the internet connection, although according to the instructions it seems that there should be internet connection at this point. I've browsed the forums and didn't find exactly the same problem, so again I'm at a loss here, although I assume I'm supposed to configure things by hand at this point, but I don't understand what exactly. Where it says Network on the "main page" of the web interface I only have active connections, but on the screenshots from the instruction there are at least two lines - WAN and WAN6 statuses, and I don't see those. If I go to the Interface page I see "lan" highlighted green and "wan" and "wan6" highlighted red.
