Looking for help setting up an isolated network within my apartment complex’s network. I have a Linksys router running OpenWrt, with the ethernet connection from my aprtment running to the uplink port on the router. When I SSH into the router, it has WAN access, but none of the LAN devices connected to it (by ethernet or wireless) do. Anyone have any experience with this?

    Yep ran all this.

    1. Did both of these
    2. It is
    3. Tried will all LAN devices. Router itself can ping 1.1.1.1 (and 8.8.8.8) but none of the LAN devices can reach the internet.

      One other thing I forgot is to verify a LAN device can ping the router IP, but I’m guessing you’ve already verified that. This is starting to sound like a FW issue

      It’s been years since I setup my openwrt router, but here is some advice verifying your FW config

      tl;dr Your WAN interface may be defined as ‘wan’ in your FW rules, since ‘WAN’ != ‘wan’ - correcting the case may solve the issue
