DIY OpenWRT router - I can’t figure out how to configure it correctly

Nord1ing

Hello,
I am trying to replace my router with Dyi OpenWRT running in VM. And something went wrong ... I can’t figure out how to make it work.
I am using a miniPC with 4 LAN ports:

Current network configuration:

And the future network configuration should be:

So far, I have installed OpenWRT in the VM and tried to configure it, but ... already at this point I can’t access the Internet from the LAN device (192.168.2.5). For testing, I still use a MiniPC connected to the router, and the Internet works fine on the host system.
My Vmware configuration (WiFi card not yet installed):

Does anyone know a step-by-step guide for such a configuration or can advise how to do this?
Thank you in advance!

I'm not particularly interested in openwrt, so I can try f.ex. pfsense if it's easy to set up. At the moment, I already installed openwrt on vm and got stuck on network (both on guest and host, I think) configuration. The same, if it is an issue with vmware, I am ready to switch to virtualbox for easier configuration.
