I have installed openwrt 18.06.1
I am tring to configure wlan0 as sta mode .wifi client when connected to mobile hotspot working fine but when it is connected to router it in not working
It is throwing the error root@openwrt:/# [ 1523.367925] IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready.
Please help me to solve this problem
Thanks in Advance
Could you please upload the contents of /etc/config/network , /etc/config/firewall and /etc/config/dhcp ?

Wlan0 is not able to get Router IP address
Even though the wpa_supplicant file has been updated properly.but wlan0 is not getting ip address.
root@openwrt:/# cat /var/run/wpa_supplicant-wlan0.conf

Does it even connect to the Access Point?
There are no packets in TX or RX, so my guess is that it is not associated.
What do iwinfo and `iw phy phy0 info' give?

I don't see the device connecting to the Access point at all. You first need to sort that out.
Could you try the following:
Go to the Luci webgui, Network-Wireless. Click on scan and check if it will find the SSID that you are trying to connect to. If it does, continue with the webgui to set it up.
If not, verify that the access point is using the 2,4GHz band and not 5GHz, it is not configured on channel 14 (which is disabled on your router), and that it is not hidden.
Access point is working fine
True story, but you cannot connect to it.
And try to be more verbose if you want to have your problem solved at some point.
SOLVED : Wifi client is working fine with this changes in files network,dhcp,firewall,wireless

As the configuration seems you have created another local zone, such as LAN, named wifi. While it is okay to do so it was not suggested by anyone and it doesn't seem to be the correct way to do this.
In certain situations you may want to create more firewall zones but this shouldn't be one of those situations. @trendy suggested to change config in a simple manner but anyway it seems your problem has been solved so please mark the topic as solved.
That configuration is a real mess.
All you need to do for a basic routed client, that a standard router except that its connection to the Internet is wireless to another network instead of wired to a modem, is to connect a wireless STA to the existing wan network instead of the Ethernet port. In the default configuration, the wan network is already a DHCP client and firewall rules are in place to forward from lan to wan.
I suggest resetting to default configuration and doing that.
If you find that the other network gives you a WAN IP in the 192.168.1.X subnet, you need to change your LAN to be something else in order to be able to route to the Internet. This would be true whether your connection is wired or wireless.
