No internet connection after openwrt flash

I flashed my Archer A7 with factory openwrt firmware. After this I cannot connect to internet and can barely access the openwrt page with 192.168.1.1

What does it mean, exactly ?

It works for half the time and just doesn’t load sometimes. But i am on it now with no problems and it says that I am connected to the internet now but I cannot access any webpages it’s saying something about DNS

Still too vague, keep talking..

Well idk it’s confusing I flashed it with openwrt firmware and it wouldn’t connect to internet. I restarted pc restarted router multiple times. I haven’t configured any settings on openwrt either… do I have to? I can send pictures if needed

Restart provider device, also try to recall if you have ever cloned MAC addresses.

Is the OpenWrt connected to another router (one provided by the ISP, for example)? Can you reach the OpenWrt router if you disconnect I'd from the other router?

I have never cloned MAC addresses it did give me an option to when setting it up by I kept it on do not clone and I have restarted it multiple times unfortunately

I don’t have any other routers except for this one

Let's see who is handling your DNS requests.

Please connect to your OpenWrt device using ssh and copy the output of the following commands and post it here using the "Preformatted text </> " button:

Remember to redact passwords, MAC addresses and any public IP addresses you may have:

ubus call system board
cat /etc/config/network
cat /etc/config/wireless
cat /etc/config/dhcp
cat /etc/config/firewall
ifstatus wan

lol, :upside_down_face:
