Post subject: | knopmyth and wireless bridge |
Ive got a belkin wireless bridge that sits on my network with a private ip address of 192.168.11.225 if tried to configure KM to use it as follows Code: # /etc/network/interfaces -- configuration file for ifup(8), ifdown(8)
# The loopback interface # automatically added when upgrading auto lo eth0 iface lo inet loopback #iface eth0 inet dhcp iface eth0 inet static address 192.168.11.145 gateway 192.168.11.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.11.0 broadcast 192.168.11.255 ~ but its not working... , i can access the myth box from my local network but the knopmyth box can see onto the internet ![]() Ive been using this bridge for a while without issue and i changed my wireless router today cos it was giving to many dropouts. now the old router was in the 192.168.2.x range so ive had to reconfigure all my static ips to match and try to fix the interfaces file on knoppmyth REALLY stupidly it did not backup what the interfaces file was before i started and now im not 100% certain what it had in it should the gateway address in the interfaces file point to the ip of the bridge or the ip of my router ?? ive tried both and neither seem to work, ive also tried the reconfigured bridge with a laptop which works fine - so i think my issue much be to do with the config on knoppmyth. I see the message eth0: no IPv6 routers present in dmesg - is this something to worry about my mysql database seems to have got damaged as a result of trying to connect a newer knoppmyth frontend. Is there any possibility that it also screwed with my network somehow ?? Im stumped and can see that mythfilldatabase has failed 4 days running, which could mean the problem was there before i changed my wireless router. |

Its working now ... not 100% sure why to be honest, i set it to dhcp, rebooted and then put it back to static and it now automagically works My suspicion is that i was tinkering around with the settings and then running /etc/init.d/networking restart and i think it was having mupliple entries in the route table.... but networking is defintely not my strongpoint so i could be talking nonsense ! by the way , answering my own question - it seems you configure the gateway to be the router rather than the bridge. |
