    RT-AX88U Vlan bridge/port questions

    I corrected the line in nat-start, and now that completes successfully, inserting the line into the nat table on reboot. I wasn't sure if the dhcp service is handing out addresses on that subnet or not though. The client computer on br3 took some time before it could connect (but not nearly as...

    Doh! I copied it direct from the previously linked article. I guess his editor split the line. I am way outside my wheelhouse and floundering around in the dark here. Thanks for the help. It works now. From the terminal anyway. The command was accepted without error message and appears in the...

    RT-AX88U Vlan bridge/port questions

    Using the terminal window, when I try to enter iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.150.0/24 -d 192.168.150.0/24 \ -o br3 -j MASQUERADE I get the error message "Bad argument ' -o' " . Which probably explains why nat-start failed. So I tried iptables -h and learned: [!] --out-interface -o...

    RT-AX88U Vlan bridge/port questions

    OK, this is weird. I had other things to do for a few hours but left things on. When I came back, the computer plugged into eth4 had an IP address and can connect to the internet. I cannot ping a computer on br0 from br3 and vise-versa. I wonder what happened and why it took so long? I was...

    Sorry, that should be 192.168.150 subnet. IE the computer currently plugged into br3. Obviously this one is working!

    RT-AX88U Vlan bridge/port questions

    That wasn't the answer either, still not getting an ip address, still can't even ping google when manually setting an IP in the 192.168.0 subnet although the results from both br0 and br3 seem to correspond now: xxxy@RT-AX88U-38C8:/tmp/home/root# ip addr show dev br0 24: br0...

    RT-AX88U Vlan bridge/port questions

    I don't know why ifconfig can't be found, but since ip can be found I'm running with that for now. I may have made an error in setting up the br3 interface though. Comparing results of ip addr show dev br0 to ip addr show dev br3, I noticed there is no broadcast address in the latter results...

    RT-AX88U Vlan bridge/port questions

    Instead of the "ifconfig br3 allmulti up", I entered these two lines in the command shell and they seem to be accepted (as per the results of "ip addr show dev br3"): ip link set br3 up ip link set br3 allmulticast on So I put those lines in the services-start script and commented out the...

    RT-AX88U Vlan bridge/port questions

    The internet tells me that ifconfig has been depreciated by ip -- and I do seem to have that available. The command ip addr add 192.168.150.1/24 was accepted following which the query ip addr show dev br3 reads back the same address. I assume this is because I am running the latest version...

    RT-AX88U Vlan bridge/port questions

    I tried sbin\iftables just to see if it was a corruption of sbiniftables in the error message "line 1: sbinifconfig: not found". I tried sbin\iptables for the same reason, given the suggestion that iptables was the correct name. Entware was installed by Diversion automagically. Is that a problem?

    ipconfig makes more sense, but the series of scripts all call ifconfig repeatedly. I copy-pasted from this article: https://wu.renjie.im/blog/network/ax88u-vlan/#create-bridge-br1 into a text editor, changed the specifics, then saved the files, copying to the scripts folder and made them...

    RT-AX88U Vlan bridge/port questions

    Well, I tried adding the scripts (modified to create br3 instead of br1). And nothing happened. So I tried entering the lines individually in a command prompt (putty). I successfully created br3, and moved eth4 to br3, as shown by brctl show. But the next step, "ipcofig br3 192.168.150.0...

    Ah. Have to see what happens I guess. In order to isolate it from br1, for example, would the correct syntax be "brctl delif br1 eth4" or "brctl delif br1 eth4.501" ?
