I have issues with set up my openwrt router i have a router from my isp can access the luci pretty easy and have network on my openwrt router and wifi
As soon il try to set the isp router to bridge mode all connections stop and have no internet at all. Then i have to unplug everything from the openwrt router and start all over to get access to the luci Agian my Bridged router is on 192.168.0.1 and openwrt use 192.168.10.2 il not have a static ip from my isp provider can that be the issue ? I can provide some more info when im home in a hour.
Over the weekend think i have started all over 15-20 times and cant find a solution to get it right
The routers is connected to lan2 - lan2
Then both devices should be on the same subnet. If not, use router's wan port.

So shuld i change the ip on the 2. Router too so the bridged router shuld be connected to the wan port on the openwrt hmm think i have readed i shuld use the lan porte
Depends on what you're trying to achieve.
If you want to connect lan-lan, it needs to be configured as in https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/network/wifi/wifiextenders/bridgedap
If you want/need separate subnets, just move the ethernet cable from modem to the router's wan port.
What will be the best solution for me. I cant route my dns from my isp router thats the whole hassle and they recommended me to set their router on bridge and use another router and route dns from there then i found openwrt il flashed in to another router and i try to setup now
Then you need to set it up with double NAT, connecting through the WAN port.
Don't use the guide I posted.
Hi ty for the help yesterday. not sure if its right but can the firewall block for the wan connection? i have internet and the cable works. my isp provider told me i shuld use lan 4 for connecting when its in bridge.
the firewall is there for blocking incoming connections not initiated by the lan clients.
then connect the OpenWRT device to the 4th port of the modem.
nothing should really change, except you might now receive a public IP.
Yes i find out its maby my noob nees there did a mistake and now i have connection thats nice now i can come further can i some how merge the 2x wireless radios or just disable 2.4 gz one il living in a apartment so there is alot of wireless connections from the other apartments or how can i do it smart as possible
which two radios ?
wifi is off by default, if it's enabled, you enabled it.
disabling it is done in the same place.
Radio i mean the 2.4 and 5 GHz brand wifi radios its called in openwrt just want to use the 5 but when i disabled the 2.4 it disabled the other one too
normally, it shouldn't.
what device are you using.
This one is the one i flashed
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:

run logread -f via ssh, and stop the 2.4GHz radio, post the output logread generates, we'd to see the 5GHz radio being stopped at the same time.
not related, but you should probably remove this:
root@OpenWrt:~# logread -f
