I could be totally out for lunch here, but shouldn't that be se00 (secure ethernet) instead of eth0.1? At least on 3.10.28-14 neuter "ifconfig" nor /etc/config/network mentions eth0.1 at all. Could you post both of these (so the result of calling ifconfig on a terminal on the router and the content of /etc/config/network ;), I am sure you know what I meant, just dying to be verbose for the sake of people stumbling over the archive of the mailing list)


Hi Sebastian,

Understood. I will come back to you with the ifconfig.

For info, I did try both se00 and eth0.1. The reason I stuck with eth0.1 was that barrier breaker usually uses eth0.1 for br-lan with vlan enabled (eth0.1 appears in Luci in cerowrt). So in cero I just reenabled the vlan and used a type "bridge" on the network section (I renamed this section se99 instead of se00).

I then added se99 it to the "lan" zone of the firewall. In the wireless config I specified network as "se99" instead of sw10 and sw00. I confirmed that the setup was correct in the web interface where eth0.1 sw00 and sw10 appeared under the new bridged interface ( there was the nice icon with the iface in brackets).

I went on to modify the dhcp config of se00 and changed se00 occurences for se99 and commented out entries for sw10/sw00. --> this would give me dhcp running on my new bridge.

After a dnsmasq restart dnsmasq.conf shows the dhcp ranges line with interface se99. (I was expecting to see br-se99 but maybe that file is alias aware, could be wrong here).

After a network restart I lost connectivity on cable. Wireless was working.

I played a tad more and eventually lost wifi as well and had to reflash the router via tftp/factory image (maybe there is a reset trick you could give me to avoid this step).

Are you running cerowrt in bridge mode? If yes could you share your network/firewall/dhcp config? Is there another file I should have edited and missed?

Cheers,
