first thing to-do after flashing openwrt

first thing to do after flashing openwrt is making our device connected to internet. because after connected to internet, we could update our software, install software from repository, etc.

first change the ip address of our lan adapter to any of the range 192.168.1.2-255. then test our connection to the device by ping it from command prompt. start > cmd > ping 192.168.1.1

after the test success.
we access out device with telnet by typing telnet 192.168.1.1 on telnet (still on the command prompt).

change our root password so it become more secured. by typing passwd [yourpasswordhere]

okay... after we changed the password then automatically telnet will be disabled... now we used software like putty.. that can  access our device by using encryption (ssh, port 22) .

type in the ip address 192.168.1.1 then proceed.... after that type the password that we already created.
