Need help Quick. big problem!

Postby flemingfamily » Sat Nov 20, 2010 9:39 pm

ok so i just set amahi up. works great so i go and disable the DHCP on my router (have FIOS) and now none of my wireless comps (HDA only wired + TV Boxs MoCA) are not connecting to anything, hell they dont even see the wireless half the time, some see it but dont connect and some dont. there are a mix of macs and pcs here with the HDA server being the only full time linux box. I am not new to linux (still no expert). Please Help,

Thanks

I should be able to dig into this, even without having FiOS, as I work for ICSAlabs, a division of Verizon... :)

And have prevented them (the FiOS'team') from doing some bad things (tm). This might be one we missed.

Odds are they are blocking DHCP traffic from the wired to the wireless, as this could be considered an attack against the network!

Look into any filtering features between wired and wireless and see what might be blocked.

All the values are stored in mySQL tables. I use the phpMyAdmin to alter values.

Is your laptop configured with the right workgroup name?

Take a look here if you have not seen it before: http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Network_troubleshooting
