Trying to set up a DIY OpenWRT router but unsure about the configuration steps.
Hello, I'm working on swapping my router for Dyi OpenWRT inside a VM. Something isn't working... I need help getting it up and running. I'm using a miniPC with four LAN ports. Current network setup: With parameters: The future network configuration should be: I've installed OpenWRT in the VM but can't access the Internet from the LAN device (192.168.2.5). For testing, I still connect a MiniPC to the router, and it works fine on the host machine. My VMware setup (WiFi card not installed): Spoiler: I'm trying to configure OpenWRT without the WiFi card yet. Spoiler: Anyone have a step-by-step guide or advice for this? Thanks ahead!

I’m not really into openwrt, so I’ll give it a shot with f.ex. pfSense if it’s straightforward. Right now I’m stuck with network setup on both the guest and host sides. If the problem lies with VMware, I’m open to moving to VirtualBox for simpler configuration.
