So i was on here last night as i have been having connection issues with hard wired and wifi devices, decided to upgrade to version 4 beta. I managed to do a UBOOT last night (first time i have tried) and all went well. managed to do it while the rest of the house slept as not to interrupt anyones internet time (great dad).
this morning everything was ok, then this afternoon as i was adding some wireguard protocols it started popping up at the top a warning that it needed a reboot as “something” was wrong with the environment (apologies as i didnt think it was important so I didnt take much notice of what it said) I rebooted as requested, and then could only log in via LUCI.
I decided to reflash as I like the GLI interface for wireguard/vpn…
i used the same img file openwrt-ax1800-4.0.0-0528.img as i did last night but went via LUCI.
left it for about 20 minutes while i pottered about, came to check on it and nothing was connected, left it another 10 minutes (knowing that it only took about 5 last night) and nothing.
now all I get is “unrecognised network” checking ipconfig and the router isnt giving out a gateway address.
when i checked in ipconfig i get randomness like
ipv4 169.254.20.118
subnet 255.255.0.0
default gateway is blank.
is there any way to do a UBOOT via a usb or anything?
im not great with SSH and stuff like that.
be grateful of any help to rescue my friend Flint.
thanks.
