Hmm not able to obtain an IP address
tried again, still cant connect to the router after doing that vlan config
@psherman any clue on what todo
I have had some questions/concerns about some of the previous bits of the config... specifically in the way the bridges were formed with Ethernet ports.
Make a backup of the current config. Then reset the device to defaults and post the config as it exists in the default state.
Ah if its about the wan port of the ethernet, its because ive turned into a lan port, as i use an optic fibre sfp stick for wan
The issue is that many DSA devices can only have a single bridge. A few can accommodate two. Bridge-VLANs are how the ports should be assigned. It's possible we have some conflicting stuff here, so a reset to defaults will allow us to see the default config of the network file. From there we should be able to re-implement the additional networks you need.
ah ok, ill reset to defaults

Completely reset, I'll add the PPPoE connection now
Sounds good. Update when you've got the general stuff running. We only need the network config.

Great. Thanks.
Let's start putting things back together. Starting with the bridge-vlans and the alarm network. This shouldn't break anything this time:
As before, add the bridge-vlans (this time, the wan port isn't part of br-lan, though, instead we have lan1-lan3 and eth1):
config bridge_vlan
option device 'br-lan'
option vlan '1'
list ports 'lan1:u*'
list ports 'lan2:u*'
list ports 'lan3:u*'
list ports 'eth1:u*'
config bridge_vlan
option device 'br-lan'
option vlan '4'
list ports 'lan2:t'
Now we can edit the lan interface to use br-lan.1:
config interface 'lan'
option device 'br-lan.1'
option proto 'static'
option ipaddr '192.168.1.1'
option netmask '255.255.255.0'
option ip6assign '60'
and we can add the alarm network:
config interface 'alarm'
option proto 'static'
option device 'br-lan.4'
option ipaddr '192.168.4.1'
option netmask '255.255.255.0'
Add the DHCP server for alarm:
config dhcp 'alarm'
option interface 'alarm'
option start '100'
option limit '150'
option leasetime '12h'
And finally, add the firewall zone and related rules for the alarm network:
config zone
option name 'alarm'
option input 'REJECT'
option output 'ACCEPT'
option forward 'REJECT'
list network 'alarm'
config rule
option name 'Allow-DNS-alarm'
option src 'alarm'
option dest_port '53'
option target 'ACCEPT'
config rule
option name 'Allow DHCP-alarm'
list proto 'udp'
option src 'alarm'
option dest_port '67'
option target 'ACCEPT'
config forwarding
option src 'alarm'
option dest 'wan'
Now, reboot and the alarm network should be active (but we haven't gotten through the MX4200 yet, so we can't practically use it), and everything should still work normally.
Please confirm when this is done and working.
Can't obtain an IP address weirdly
On which port are you trying to obtain an IP?
Lan 3 and tried wirelessly too didn't work
If you set a static IP, can you gain access to the router and then share the configs?
I'll try via ethernet in a bit, wirelessly it connected but luci wouldn't load
I can't connect via ethernet either, but I'll use the serial port and grab the config

This is very strange.
Which port did you say you are using for the wan? eth2 or wan?
Eth2, which is the SFP port
