Greetings,
currently, I'm using openwrt-23.05 with a none standard ip range, it seems that in 24.10, I cannot use it, only the default one works, the reason for it is that setting my none standard ip range sets dhcp-range in /var/etc/dnsmasq.conf.cfg01411c to an invalid entry, is it a bug in openwrt/dnsmasq or it is a new limitation on ip ranges?
my range is 23.179.17.xxx
Thanks

When you say 'my range' do you mean that's an IP block you own? Or just a random range you've selected?
What's the output of:
cat /etc/config/network
cat /etc/config/dhcp

it is a range I selected for the private network, it isn't exposed outside of my lan

Any particular reason you're not using IPs from the ranges specifically set aside for private use?

none specific, just don't like the 192.168,x,x ones...

Well use one of the other ranges then. Randomly selecting and using globally addressable IP ranges is not good practice.
But, in terms of your issue, your specified DHCP pool is invalid. You're telling DNSmasq to use a pool of 150 addresses starting from xxx.xxx.xxx.139 and there aren't that many addresses in a /24 block.

so I can set my router to 23.179.17.1 and the rest will be accessible using 23.179.17.xxx?

Probably, but you shouldn't.

'Private' IP address ranges are:
10.0.0.0/8 IP addresses: 10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0/12 IP addresses: 172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255
192.168.0.0/16 IP addresses: 192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255

Could it be you have no clue what you are actually doing and you have no idea what a "Network" and what a "Subnet" is, do you?!

Yes, all IPs within those ranges have been set aside for 'private' use.
