[Server-devel] Fwd: [SoaS] wireless connection school server
[Forwarding to the XS list] -- Forwarded message -- From: David Leeming da...@leeming-consulting.com Date: Sun, Mar 28, 2010 at 23:02 Subject: [SoaS] wireless connection school server To: SoaS s...@lists.sugarlabs.org Not sure if this is an SOAS or XS question or both! I am trying out a mixed environment with XO-1s and SOAS. The XOs are connected and registered on an XS with v 0.6. They connect to a default network 172.18.0.0 wirelessly. I have one PC netbook running SOAS 2 Blueberry. I can connect wirelessly but it gives me a different network 10.42.xxx.xxx (or close). The wireless icon on the SOAS shows me “connected to the school server” but I can’t access any resources or register etc. I then found I can do a wired connection, which works fine. It connects on the default 172.18.0.0 network and I can access the XS Moodle home page – which requires a username/password. It won’t let me in or register the SOAS netbook until I created a user account using the admin XO. I had to manually input the server qualified name in the control panel of the SOAS netbook, and then I was able to register and collaborate with the XOs (i.e. with the SOAS on a wired connection and the XOs wireless). Is this correct or have I missed an easier way? What would I see if I had 2 or more computers running SOAS, connecting wirelessly? Should they be receiving IP addresses in the default range (172.18.0.0) or the other range I was observing (10.42.xxx.xxx)?

Re: [Server-devel] Fwd: [SoaS] wireless connection school server
David, Keeping the list on. So to be clear the XOs are connected to an Active Antenna and the SOAS is connected to an AP? How is the AP connected to the XS?

The issue is that when I connect the computer running SOAS Wirelessly, the XS gives it an IP address in another range (10.42.xxx.xxx) so it can't see or collaborate with the XOs. However, if I make a wired connection with the SOAS to eth1 it does get the default IP range 172.18.xxx.xxx and collaborates OK. The XS is running with default configuration.

If you have multiple APs are they all configured to act as a bridge to the wired network so that the XS can hand out IP addresses?2 snip What would I see if I had 2 or more computers running SOAS, connecting wirelessly? Should they be receiving IP addresses in the default range (172.18.0.0) or the other range I was observing (10.42.xxx.xxx)? They should all have 172 addresses.

Re: [Server-devel] Fwd: [SoaS] wireless connection school server
David, Also to be clear, the SOAS will not connect to the AA (Active Antenna).

I will try again with a fresh XS and AP and report back...

Actually I loaded it onto and Acer Aspire One netbook. When I connected wirelessly to my XS server access point, my IP was the standard 172.18.96.* and after changing the default server address under / My Settings / Network, I registered onto the server with no problem. Actually, this was the first XO to ever register onto my server, so it was given the course creator role. I'm not sure why your PC was assigned a different network. You should check to see how DHCP was set up on your wireless connection. Or maybe someone here will have an explanation. Bottom line for me right now is that my netbook is connected wirelessly and registered as if it was an XO (running Sugar of course).
