That's not right at all! You're on what is referred to as different subnets. If your SC server is 192.168.15.2 then your SB should be assigned a 192.168.15.x IP address. Something is wrong with your network. Please describe it in more detail. Do you have a modem (cable, DSL)? Do you have a router? The fact that they're getting addresses on two different subnets seems to imply that maybe there are two DHCP servers operating on your network. That will screw things up for sure and probably explains all the network problems you're having. A DHCP server assigns IP addresses to devices on your network. Usually your router does this but your modem could also be doing this. If two of them are doing it at the same time - chaos and devices that can't connect to each other. A DHCP server will usually assign numbers based on its own IP. So it could be your router is at 192.168.15.0 or 192.168.15.1 and is assigning numbers in the 192.168.15.x range while your modem is at 192.168.2.0 or 192.168.2.1 and is assigning addresses in the 192.168.2.x range. When your SB asks for an IP address, it's a race and a fight to get to see which DHCP server assigns the address, and once it does this, the SB can't access the other portion of the network. -- Mark Lanctot Current: SB2, Transporter, Boom (PQP3 - late beta), SBC (early beta) Stored: Boom (PQP1 - early beta) Sold: SB3, Duet ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Lanctot's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2071 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=61709 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
