After flashing the NAT device with the appropriate custom OpenWRT firmware and configuring the firmware for first use I cannot obtain a gateway IP address or connect to the node via LAN using localnode:8080, localnode.local.mesh:8080, or KG5CNK.local.mesh:8080. I have tried numerous times resetting the WRT54G in hopes that I would be able to access it prior configuration of the newly flashed firmware. With no luck, I am unable to access the WRT54G now. It is powered on, and shows an ADHOC logo for the wireless networking capabilities. I've reset the laptop's NIC along with resetting the WRT54G. Nothing I do is allowing me a gateway IP address into it. I've been using CMD > ipconfig. No matter what I do, I am basically locked out of the device.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
