Update: I think I’ve found the problem. Going onto the interfaces then devices tab on the openwrt ui and it seems the physical wan ethernet port doesn’t work. I tried plugging the same wan cable into another port and it is detected as having a device connected, but the wan port doesn’t. Also the wan interface gets some internet activity when the port is changed to one of the LAN ports and a cable is plugged in, but the wan port doesn’t show any network activity.
Should i return the flint router? I only bought it a month ago so i should be able to get a new unit right? Or is there a way i can see what the issue is with the wan ethernet port?
