With this image it Will possible to use R2 as a normal router?, i got problems with nat on Ubuntu.

#15

Yes, it’s possible to make R2 to be a router.

On Ubuntu, the HNAT will NOT be supported, the HNAT is supported based on DSA structure, but there is no DSA within kernel 4.4(ubuntu is using), so it’s a huge task to port HNAT from lede(4.9 kernel) to Ubuntu(4.4 kerenl).

#16

Can 4.9 from lede be used for ubuntu? Where are problems? If the problem with sd-card in 4.14 can be solved it can also be used.

#17

Replace the current uImage with v4.14 kernel so that you can run HNAT on Ubuntu. I’ve done it before…

#18

@Ryder.Lee Is sd-card-problem solved?

#19

How a can configure my IP Address? I tried it with ifconfig br-lan add … and route add default gw … I can ping my PC successfully but I got no internet

#20

Hi RW2003

The DNS should be configured and the /etc/config/firewall will be changed, please refer to http://forum.banana-pi.org/uploads/default/original/2X/8/84d6c0336af978c299fb73556fd67d896e719d52.png

#21

I think this problem is not like that. I have intenet now. And did not change any things in “/etc/config/firewall”. Actually I just change the ifname for “wan” and “wan6” in the "/etc/config/network" to “wan” but not “eth1”. And it works.

#22

Could you send pull request back to github. Lets us make support lede better.

#23

There is no wifi available yet, right?

#24

Wifi-ap-driver is currently in testing state for debian-kernel (4.4.70)

#25

Install commands not work… ‘cannot Install package’

#26

Do you mean that both luci-theme-bootstrap and luci-mod-admin-full can’t be installed, right?

#27

Yup, some packages can be installed eg. curl but some cannot eg. htop

#28

Cannot download the image ! : http://pan.baidu.com/s/1nuXqAVJ
