Hi all
Got my Omnia yesterday and have a couple of questions.
Currently I have an Asus RT3200 as router and an AC68 (i think, it’s new) in AP mode. It all works perfectly but I wanted to upgrade the router for security reasons, hence the omnia. Router and AP are connected by ethernet, out of a lan port and into a lan port.
I have a BT supplied modem and 80gbit BT Infinity.
I switched the router for the omnia yesterday, and although I could get internet access if I switched off DNSSEC it was noticably slower browsing and using citrix. Also I could not get the AP to work. I could ping 192.168.1.254 (omnia) but it was dropping out and there was no internet access. I assumed DHCP problem, and whenever I ran the check in Luci I recieved fails on 4or the tests. I assume the ISP config was ok as devices connected to the omnia worked ok (if a little slow). I treid the AP witha static IP (and the correct range settings on the omnia) and DHCP and had the same problem. I know nothing about openwrt so that’s probably the problem here but any advice would be most welcome. I assumed that not touching the AP, leaving as DHCP, would work out of the box!
Also, any advice on setting up a Huawei E3372 as a backup connection would be gratefully recieved - I followed the (excellent) guide for the setup of an internal 4g modem, but had no joy with the usb device, it just had RX/TX at 0 no matter what I did. This all works fine with the asus, but it’s an attackers honeypot!
Many thanks
Simon
