FS#1169 - TP-Link Archer C7 no Wan on intial bootup #1027

zapfret:

On initial bootup my Tp-Link Archer C7 v2 will not get a WAN address using the LEDE firmware. Although the cable is connected and there is a link light the WAN interfaces for v4 and v6 simply say "notconnected". A manual disable/enable does not resolve the problem the only fix is a physical disconnect and reconnect of the ethernet cable to the WAN interface on the router.

Some other information. This happens with my Comcast ISP via a cable modem pulling a dhcp and a IPv6-PD address. (Neither comes up) The connection is a gigabit ethernet connection via a known good cable (tested via a Fluke cable tester). I have tried multiple modems (Netgear, and 2 Motorola modems)

This happen with any version of LEDE I have tried.

Happens to me too. My ISP is Videotron and I'm running this build: https://github.com/infinitnet/lede-ar71xx-optimized-archer-c7-v2.

Confirming. Archer C7 AC1750 v2 openwrt 18.06 initial boot or reboot after modem is running results in no WAN ip. If router is booted and THEN modem is restarted/disconnected physically DHCP WAN IP is obtained.
