I’m running OpenWRT in VMWare Workstation 12 Player on Windows 10 64bit.

When I run ifconfig in my OpenWRT, I always get only one network interface, lo. Never more:

Although there are several interfaces in /etc/config/network specified:

Also, I have set up the second network adapter in my VMWare Workstation settings for this OpenWRT instance:

So why only one interface is shown? How can I make ifconfig show more interfaces? How can I enable them?

  • Are you sure your OpenWRT has support for VMWare virtual network adapters? – Tero Kilkanen Jul 08 '17 at 08:17
  • Yes, I'm. I've seen this configuration on other Windows machine with VMWare. I'm trying to repeat it on my Win machine. – Green Jul 08 '17 at 11:59
  • Have you configured the virtual devices in VMWare? If not ifconfig won't be able to configure them in OpenWRT. – BillThor Jul 08 '17 at 14:46
  • Have you checked in `lspci` or `dmesg` that your OpenWRT sees the devices? Are you sure you are using the same version of OpenWRT as in the another installation? – Tero Kilkanen Jul 08 '17 at 16:17
  • I suspect the interface names are not what you expect them to be. What is the output of `ip l`? – Tollef Fog Heen Jul 08 '17 at 19:59
