Hi Marvin! Sorry for the delay!!
Up to now there's first flashing guide for Libre-Mesh, as it's
suggested to follow the generic OpenWrt guide for flashing:
https://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/generic.flashing
and the OpenWrt instructions for specific devices:
https://wiki.openwrt.org/toh/start
I'm sorry for this lack of documentation on Libre-Mesh side, if you
will to write one on the wiki... :D

Perfect! That's the right Libre-Mesh stable firmware source.

Ok :)

Mmmh I supposed that both thisnode.info or http://anygw should work...
Did you try to connect to the Libre-Mesh router disconnecting your PC
from any other network?
Both via cable and via wireless?
The IP of the Libre-Mesh router is set in a way to not have
collisions, so it's quite random.
For discovering the router IPv4 and IPv6 and IPv6 link local you have
many ways on Linux (wireshark, netdiscover, ping6 ff02::1%interface,
arp-scan, nmap). I heard about an Android app also (Fing). On other
operating systems no idea.
Also on this point we should write a wiki page...

Just connect to the router and try to discover it's IP first, then we'll see :)
Bye!
