Hello All,
I recently bought a new modem (TP Link Archer C7) and successfully installed OpenWRT. No problems in flashing, it was very easy with the web interface.
The trouble is ISP connection. My ISP (NetCologne) is not listed here, and they are not providing WAN connection details either. I managed to a reach customer service rep that was very friendly and tried to be very helpful, but the he lacked the technical knowledge to help me out (and I can't really reach someone more technically qualified). From what I could gather by looking at my old FritzBox, it uses PPPoE and Annex B, and the connection probably needs a VLAN tagging for 7. However, WAN is currently not working based on the config I managed to create from those. (see attached /etc/config/network)
-
Is there a best practices guide for reverse engineering ISP settings? How did the list here get created in the first place: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/wan/isp-configurations
-
Is there anything obviously wrong in my config?
-
Is there some way I can exract these settings from my old FritzBox? As far as I can tell, FritzBox'es don't support ssh by which I can pull config files.
