I connected to the router, but had no internet access.
I changed the defaults back to use provided DNS, and no change. I'm now locked out of internet access. I can attached to the wifi on the Verizon router and connect (hence this post).
I made no other changes; how can I get internet access back? I have rebooted the openwrt router several times.
I live in a weird world - and I'm obviously having a bad day.
I've reset the router - nothing I do gives me back internet access.
I have also plugged in my old router which also has openwrt - it too fails to give me internet access.
Setup:
Verizon FIOS Router in bridge mode
Openwrt router (Nighthawk or WNDR3700)
PC plugged directly in to Nighthawk/WNDR3700
With either of my routers plugged into the FIOS router, an internet page returns:
DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NO_INTERNET
wireless connections tell me the network has no internet connection also.
I can connect to the router either by ssh or 192.168.1.1 and make changes to the router.
from the router (ssh) I can't ping any outside IP.
The FIOS router's control page doesn't show the router (either) as connected. Is there something wrong in my WAN setting (I'm stupid guessing) which is blocking/stopping the router from being seen as connected/trying to connect?
