Re: Beginner, lots of issues and not sure what to tackle fir

Well much better after re-install for sure. I hit a major roadblock putting my xfiniti router into bridge mode to turn off DHCP. It was easy to put into bridge mode to turn of DHCP but I just couldn't get any internet to any of my devices, the hda, or my access points. Not sure why. I did well on th...

Additionally, from the hda, my ping results: ping hda --> "unknown host hda" EDIT (after another reinstall) ping hda WORKS now ping 10.0.0.50 (hda ip) --> success ping yahoo.com --> success ping 10.0.0.1 (the router) --> success ping 8.8.8.8 --> success

Beginner, lots of issues and not sure what to tackle first

I downloaded and installed Amahi 7.1 on a pretty nice PC today, far above the minimum specs. The machine was an HTPC that I built with near top-of-the-line components around 4-5 years ago. It really turned in to more of just a centralized place for our family files from various PC's. I've been doing...

Re: Error: Incorrect username or password

UPDATE: Reinstalled using stronger password (10 char mixed letters and numbers) and now got to control panel just fine. 4-char password (all numbers) must have been the problem. Thanks for your help! Maybe the installer should have a hard stop with weak passwords. ;)

Re: Error: Incorrect username or password

The only message/warning that I received was that my pw was too short or weak and that I would have to "hit done twice". On this second install, I just went with an 8-char stronger password to get rid of that warning/message this time. I chose a new username too just to make double sure th...

Re: Error: Incorrect username or password

I have tried numerous times logging in with the password (twice). I am a strong believer in good passwords but just wanted to make setup easier for the time being and change the password down the road once everything was up and running to my satisfaction. No warnings about pw being too short, and it...

SOLVED: Error: Incorrect username or password

I have just installed Amahi 7 from the express CD and am able to log in to the localhost directly with the userid and password that I created during the install. However, I cannot login from anywhere else on the network. I simply get a "Error: Incorrect username or password". The only thin...
