Needed to add 'usb0' device to the LAN network (br-lan) #1

Greetings,

Thank you for this HOW-TO.

I am not very familiar with openwrt (yet) but in order to the dhcp server on the RaspberryPi Zero to serve an addres over the USB cable, I needed to add the 'usb0' interface to the LAN network - via LuCI. (Not sure how to do this from uci.)

This was missing from your instructions, but once set, everythign worked as expected.

After following your instructions I was able to communicate over USB by setting static IP addresses on both ends (while also connected via Wifi). I was fighting Ubuntu's NetworkManager, so this didn't last long before being stomped on.

Cheers, Paul

Could you please describe how you were able to do this using LuCI? I'm not sure how to reach LuCI once I connect it to the internet router as a client.

Edit: I have access to LuCI now after enabling WAN access to it. But what settings did you change within LuCI exactly?
