Ports on mynet n600 not providing IP addresses

[paidforby]

Only port 3 on mynet n600 flashed with sudowrt v0.2.1 appears to be working. Port 1, 2, and 4 do not appear to provide any IP address or network access. According to the operator's manual port 1 and 2 are reserved for meshing (through extender nodes?) so I can see why those may not provide IPs. But shouldn't port 4 provide a "100." mesh ip address?

Can you get an internet connection through the peoplesopen ssid on the router?

Have not checked connection to exit node since reflashing, will try later and report back

Confirmed that I am able to access the internet via the exit node on the peoplesopen ssid and am receiving a mesh ip address over wifi. Still nothing over ethernet port 4.

I considered trying to set a static ip as suggested by @Juul in bug 9. I believe the dnsmasq config referenced is located in /etc/init.d/dnsmasq on a newly flashed node.
I found this in said file at line 409:

# Do not support non-static interfaces for now
[ static = "$proto" ] || return 0       

I am unable to find this exact config any of our repos? It seems that dnsmasq is pulled in by makenode here and here. Does this spark any ideas?

Setting an arbitrary static ip does not seem to work, i can't seem to find the reserved block of ips mentioned in bug 9 there is also /etc/dnsmasq.conf also configured by makenode.

To put service on mesh, you'd have to use a mesh ip right? Please confirm that operator's manual description of port 3 and port 4 should be swapped.

[Juul]

The ports on some mynets are scrambled, meaning that it's not port 1 and 2 that are extender node ports. Extender node ports will not give you an IP. One port should give you a 100.64 IP and the other should give you a 172.30 IP. The remaining two will not give you an IP unless you are an extender node.

I received a 172.30 IP (private) from port 3. I did not receive an IP from any of the other ports. Can someone confirm what I am seeing? I will try flashing another node, perhaps something odd about mine.

@jhpoelen, description of port 3 in operator's manual is correct, though, I cannot confirm it is correct for the other ports.

Ports work as described by Juul above. We even have a sticker guide thanks to Santa Cruz meshnet people https://github.com/sudomesh/propaganda/blob/master/stickers/router_ports/santa_cruz_meshnet_mynet_n600_labels_for_avery_5264.svg
