I follow this guide to set static IP for my BBB with Debian 9.3: http://derekmolloy.ie/set-ip-address-to-be-static-on-the-beaglebone-black/ My /etc/network/interfaces file is modified to be as follow: --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- # interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8) # Include files from /etc/network/interfaces.d: source-directory /etc/network/interfaces.d
auto lo iface lo inet loopback # Primary / Ethernet port auto eth0 iface eth0 inet dhcp address 192.168.0.20 netmask 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.0.1 # Secondary / Wifi RT5370 iface *wlxe84e0650ff53* inet static address 192.168.0.21 netmask 255.255.255.0 network 192.168.0.0 gateway 192.168.0.1 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After that, my ethernet IP is not set to ...20, but ...18 as before. On the wifi side, I did not put *usb0* because it shows up as *wlxe84e0650ff53* when I use ifconfig. Anybody know why? The extra settings completely kills it. I got no wifi, unless I comment out these new lines. Can someone tell me what went wrong? I did read this post: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/beagleboard/fixed$20ip|sort:date/beagleboard/3bea2o4iD2s/pFz_VNrvDAAJ However, I do not know if "[my] router can assign a fixed address or lock the one it assigns" or how to check for that info. Right now, the username and password for it are not known either.
