The router (if as is usually the way) runs as a DHCP server and will assign an IP address to the BBB. If you want to access the BBB from another computer on your router's LAN then you need to find out what this address is. -- Chris Green ยท -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
