I'm new to OpenWRT, I'm running a Netgear R7800 with NSS's 23.05 build. I have successfully flashed the router over ethernet and set up my network SSID and Passwords. The internet connectivity is great when I'm using wifi, but when I try to access 192.168.1.1 over wifi, I cannot connect.
However with these ipv4 settings enabled, I cannot access the internet and I am only able to access my openwrt control panel. Sorry for the noob question, what am I missing here? I'm assuming it has something to do with DHCP?
Thanks for any help
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:
ubus call system board
cat /etc/config/network
cat /etc/config/wireless
cat /etc/config/dhcp
cat /etc/config/firewall
SSH doesn't work with default windows ipv4 settings, but I am able to SSH with my custom ipv4 settings. Here's the output:

Also my network card is an Intel AX201.
What are these for?
This may be causing the problem.... try deleting that section
And did you add this line? Probably should be deleted, too.
.
You said to redact anything that was personal, so the SSID, password, MAC addresses, and duids I redacted from the post. Would it be better if I didn't redact them? And no I don't believe I personally added that line, I use luci to configure the router. Not sure how to delete over SSH.

Yes... I was asking not what the values are, but rather what the purpose of those lines are? They may be causing the DHCP process to fail. Remove those host config sections and then restart the router and try DHCP again.
Ok, I am trying to use vi over SSH on the windows command prompt and my connection resets after a few seconds... How should I go about editing these files? Am I able to do it through luci?
That is not normal, and would not be caused by any DHCP issues.
Have you tried ethernet?
When using ethernet I am able to access the router and the internet at the same time. When using wifi I can only access one or the other depending on what my ipv4 settings are.
I am connected over ethernet now, I'll try to remove those lines.
I think you've got something else going on that is more important... if ethernet is working properly but wifi is dropping frequently even when you're using a static IP, it says something is wrong with wifi.
Do other wifi client devices have any issues connecting to the router?

My iPhone can connect to 192.168.1.1 and the internet at the same time, yes.
Ok... then I suspect the problem is the wifi in your computer that's having difficulty.

I just deleted those lines with winscp over ethernet. I also thought about how it might be my computer that is the problem so I "forgot" all my networks and reconnected, it appears to be working now.
I am going to restart my router and PC and see if it continues to work after a reboot.
great!
